Are you wondering which favorite teacher will get that
Outstanding Educator Award
? Or which volunteer will get a
Golden Acorn
?
Did you know that the PTSA distributed over $100K in 39 grants to the staff of Ballard High School via the PTSA funded grants program? Do you want to see some of the great things that the BHS PTSA has done via grants, to cultivate an excellent educational environment for
all Ballard High School students?
If so, please join us for our last PTSA General Meeting of the 2017/2018 school year. This is going to be a great meeting and we'd love to have you there! We have a very full agenda starting at 6pm that we are going to try to get through quickly, so people can leave in time for the Performing Arts concert at 7:30.
In the General Meeting we will cover:
- A summary of our financial position and a vote on a new budget
- A report from our principal, Keven Wynkoop
- Discussion and vote on a PTSA sponsored gun violence resolution
- Election of new PTSA officers
- And the most fun of all: Golden Acorn and Outstanding Educator Awards! You'll want to be here for these as the folks that are getting these awards are very deserving indeed
- Grants Open House- we'll end the evening with a display of some of the wonderful things this PTSA has been able to supply through our Grants Program.
Be a Part of the Ballard High School PTSA!
For the upcoming 2018-2019 school year, the Ballard High School PTSA has several volunteer positions available, either for committee members or for smaller, well-defined and short-term volunteer opportunities. Whatever your experience, chances are we have an opportunity for you to contribute. As part of the Ballard High School PTSA,
you can make a difference by helping to cultivate an excellent educational environment for all Ballard High School Students.
All of these positions help the Ballard High School PTSA to work with the great teachers and staff of Ballard High School to ensure that teachers, families, and students have access to the resources, tools, and support they need for the best education possible.
For the upcoming 2018-2019 school year the following positions are open:

- Vice President: The Ballard High School PTSA Vice President will perform the duties of the President when the President is absent or unable to serve. This is a great position for someone without PTSA experience with minimal time requirements.
