Virtual PTA Meeting

Please join us for our final PTA meeting of the 2019-20 school year on  Tuesday, May 26 at 4:00 pm. This will be a virtual meeting via Zoom (512-958-7329 / Password 743611 ) where you will get the chance to hear from Dr. Harris, vote for PTA Board of Directors, and learn the results of our recent SIT (School Improvement Team) election.

In addition, we will honor our talented student artists and performers as we showcase artwork pieces and hear from some 3rd-5th graders who missed out on performing for us at SCArts. You will also get to see some of our wonderful 5th graders present part of their Wax Museum projects. We hope that you will join us!


Vote For SIT Team

The School Improvement Team (SIT) consists of parents and staff members who meet once a month to discuss educational policies, ensures there are resources to support those policies, and assists in developing the School Improvement Plan.

Please click on the  SIT ballot  and select up to 4 candidates.
