• How many of us have wondered if there are fundraisers that are more successful than the ones we are currently using at our school?

• How many of us have struggled to pick a fun family night activity to get lots of parent participation?

• How many of us want more ideas to recruit an active parent volunteer base?

I’m Sarah Barten, kindergarten teacher at James Monroe and active leader within Desert Sands. I invite you to join us for a Parent Teacher Organization Networking opportunity. Our intention is to bring together 2-3 members from each school’s PTO/PTA leadership 2 times annually to share what is working for the PTO/PTAs at different sites across the 3 Coachella Valley districts.

I’ve included the comments from our most recent meeting so you can get an idea of the bounty that is available to you but they hardly express the details and enthusiasm that was in the room at the time. Comments such as “This was such a great idea!” or “That’s so easy I can’t believe we never thought of it!” were expressed by many of our participants.

If you are interested in participating in this stimulating event please register here on MeetUp. You can also email me at sarah.barten@dsusd.us if you have any questions. Our next event is Wednesday, Nov 17 6:30-8pm at Desert Sands USD DEC (the district office) in the multi-purpose room. We all hope to see you there!

If you are not currently on your school's PTO/PTA board please join our sister MeetUp group instead: Successful Classroom Parents
