About the PGES PTA
The Pleasant Grove Elementary School PTA ("PGES PTA") is a volunteer-based organization. We are run by parents, just like you, along with school staff. It is the PTA's job to sponsor events, orchestrate fundraisers, coordinate all those behind the scene things like Spirit Wear and Teacher Appreciation events. All the profits earned from these events and fundraisers goes right back into our school. The PGES PTA is dedicated to building an inclusive community for our parents, students and teachers. We provide materials and experiences that extend beyond the classroom, events that cultivate school spirit, and financial support to the school/staff in areas that will ensure a positive school experience for each child.
