The 2022-23 Co-President board position is open and needs to be filled ASAP.
It’s a great opportunity to be involved in your student’s final D27 years. There are also many committees that need chairs to head them up, and committee positions to fill.
Some of the great events and activities that PTA runs may not happen without your help!
PTA is responsible for:
Book Fair
Hot Lunch
Social events such as Back to School party, Fall Skate, and the Social Dance
And much more!
Recent gifts Wood Oaks PTA fundraising has given to the school include:
Ukuleles and Guitars for the music room
Summer Reading Books
