VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Our parent volunteers are the driving force of our PTA, helping to make new families feel welcomed, support students with many enrichment opportunities, and build community at Greenacres. Some programs we run include after-school clubs, multicultural and STEAM events, community service projects, and parent get-togethers. Without your help, none of this would be possible. Please consider volunteering for the 2025-2026 school year by filling out our volunteer form HERE. You can find a description of all of the PTA committees on our website. We are seeking chairs or liaisons to help lead some key committees:
- School Play co-chair
- Walking School Bus co-chair
Please feel free to reach out to Liza King if you have any questions about the time commitment or responsibilities of a particular committee. Thank you, and we look forward to working together in the year ahead!
CLASS GIFTS
 Each year, the PTA collects money to thank our amazing teachers, specials teachers, administrators, faculty, aides and custodial staff who are the heart and soul of the Greenacres community!
$55 per student will cover holiday and end-of-year gifts for everyone.
Please click HERE to contribute.
**As a convenience for families, we are collecting class gifts at the same time as PTA dues. If you choose not to purchase gifts at this time, you can still do so by November 1, 2025.
Please reach out to Hina Afzal with any questions.
