The Arundel PTA exists to promote the welfare of students and to drive programs and activities that benefit students and our school, enhance the learning experience and build community with our families.
- Student and School Success — All students should receive a world-class education that prepares them for long-term success in college and careers. PTA programs get families engaged in their children’s education and support their learning. Parental involvement makes a big difference in student success and school improvement.
- Health and Safety — Every child should have a healthy and safe place to live, learn and thrive. PTA provides tools and resources—such as our Connect for Respect initiative—to help students, parents and schools work together to create a positive school climate.
- Arts and Culture — Every child should receive a well-rounded education with access to arts and cultural opportunities. PTA celebrates and raises awareness about the importance of arts education and provides all students the opportunity to explore and be involved in the arts through our annual Reflections program.
- Advocacy — Families should be empowered to advocate for children in the community. PTA’s policy agenda, advocacy toolkit and state and national trainings make it easy for any parent to make a difference.
The PTA is funded through membership and fundraising activities throughout the school year. The funds allow the PTA to plan, financially support, and organize the following programs that benefit the entire Arundel community:
- Art in Action
- Science programs for the classroom
- School support
- Study trips, enrichment assemblies and activity days
- Technology for the computer lab and classrooms
- Library books and classroom materials
- Enrichment curriculum in science and art
- Life skills training and support
- Teacher mini-grants and grade level grants
- Play equipment on the upper and lower playgrounds
- Campus beautification
- Special events, e.g. Teacher Appreciation Week, Halloween Fun Day, Kindergarten Picnic, Science Night, Heritage Fair, Family Fun Nights, and much, much more!
