Escambia PTA reports membership growth, events and training for leaders
Summary
The county PTA reported increased membership and a schedule of upcoming community events, trainings and awards for students and volunteers.
The Escambia County PTA updated the school board on recent and upcoming activities, membership and volunteer recognition.
PTA representative Campbell told the board the county's 29 PTAs and PTSAs have "been busy with student enrichment programs and family engagement events such as carnivals and STEM family nights." She said membership has exceeded last year's total, reporting 352 members and that the county plans to reinstate a 30th local unit on April 2.
Campbell outlined spring events including a Reflections Arts Awards ceremony on March 27, a PTA spring training on April 5 funded by a mini-grant from United Way of West Florida, Earth Day activities at Braveview Park on April 19, and a WSRE TV "Be My Neighbor Day" participation on April 26. The PTA also expects a Local Unit Awards celebration tentatively scheduled for May 30.
Why it matters: the PTA said its volunteers support student enrichment and family engagement across the district. Campbell closed by thanking the board and inviting community members to join the PTA.
No board action was recorded on the PTA report; it was delivered as part of committee and department reports.
