Congratulations to Olivia Chang who won a Board Game Basket Giveaway (for the families that joined by October 30th). Don't worry if you didn't join/renew by October, you can still join/renew your PTA membership and make a difference in our school community!

Puesta del Sol Elementary provides a wonderful academic environment, with hard working teachers and staff to educate our children-- but the school does not do this alone. We as parents are vital to providing support by volunteering our time and resources to our child's school.

Puesta del Sol PTA helps support our school by sponsoring academic programs (Passport Club, Drama Club, and more), providing stipends for classroom and library expenses, providing ways for families to stay connected with the PTA Directory access (only available to members), communication about school news and events, and PTA discounts on activities and services.

Join or renew PTA today to help us to speak up for every child!
