Membership is only $10 per adult.

Parents, grandparents and other family members are encouraged to sign up!

 

 

Why join the PTA? With your help, we will make a big impact this year by advocating for our students, teachers, parents and school! Your membership helps support a variety of school activities and programs while creating a fun, engaging and positive community! In addition, only PTA members are able to vote on how the PTA spends their funds and how to support the school.  PTA membership does not obligate you to volunteer or attend monthly meetings. Your participation, however, is welcome and we want to hear your voice!

 

 

If I join do I have to...

  • Go to meetings?
    You don't have to attend our monthly PTA meetings, but we'd love to have you! PTA gives you a voting voice when you want to weigh in on how the PTA operates and spends the funds raised. 

  • Volunteer or spend a lot of time at school?
    Nope! Joining the PTA is not the same as volunteering. If you choose to volunteer we would LOVE the help—but volunteering is not required. 

Membership Prizes:

  • Every member will receive an all new Melinda Heights car sticker, and their child (or children) will receive a backpack keychain.
  • Purchase your membership by Friday, August 23 and be you will be entered for a chance to win one of 20 free spirit wear t-shirts.
  • On Fridays after school, August 23-September 27, students can stop by our membership table in front of the MPR and show their keychain for a special prize. 
  • The two classes with the highest membership by September 30 will win an ice cream party (one upper grade, one lower grade).

 

With your 2024-2025 PTA membership:

  • You will partner with the principal, teachers, and staff to make your child's school safe, welcoming, a great place of learning, and a fun place to be.
  • You will help make sure parents and family members voices are heard when important decisions are made that affect Melinda Heights. This includes advocacy for students who receive special education and who are English learners.
  • Through meetings, you will get to connect with other parents, and become part of California State PTA and National PTA, the largest and most powerful children’s advocacy organization in the country. (Note: You DO NOT have to volunteer or attend meetings, though we’d be happy to have you!)
  • Our kids and their teachers still get access to the educational online software they know and love—Accelerated Reader and Lexia.
  • PTA will provide opportunities for engagement and connection, including the Reflections art program, online book fairs, health week, family fun nights, Jog-A-Thon, the opportunity to purchase spirit wear, a helping hands NEGU toy drive, maintenance of our disaster preparedness materials, parent education, Walk Through History presentations, and staff appreciation. We also continue to offer Meet The Masters, STEM Lab, and Kids Run the OC.
