Parents’ Association
The purpose of the P.A. is to give broad-based support to the programs of the school: to assist in enriching the academic, extracurricular, and social life of the school by providing a variety of services and planning events which will enable all of us to share more fully in the Desert Academy community.
The P.A.’s fundraising efforts yield grants for our teachers, who are given the opportunity to request items for their classrooms. Parents are invited to a meeting at the school to hear these requests and vote for which should be granted.
The P.A. also helps coordinate the Back to School Picnic, Fall Potlucks, serves a light meal or snack once a month at Friday faculty meetings, organizes a holiday gift bonus for faculty and staff, and hosts the Faculty Appreciation Luncheon in the spring.
All parents are members of the P.A. and are welcome at all meetings and P.A. events.
For more information on how to become involved, please contact Jone Hallmark at joneinc@earthlink.net.
