WHAT IS THE PTA?
The Tuckahoe PTA (Parent Teacher Association) supports children Pre-K through Grade 12, as well as families, teachers, and staff. The PTA runs programs that provide school spirit, academic enhancement, cultural enrichment, and more. Our motto is that of the national PTA: “Every child, one voice.”
Our organization is led by an Executive Board comprised of committees that spearhead the over 70 programs and events each school year. Money raised through our Ways and Means Committee and through membership dues goes directly back into funding our programs.
Please follow us on Facebook and Instagram for PTA updates and celebratory news throughout the school year.
Become a Member Today!
Anyone in our community may become a member of the PTA by paying annual dues. PTA membership does not require you to volunteer; however we welcome all members as well as non-members who wish to volunteer at PTA events and programs. You can pay your membership fee simply by clicking the "Join the PTA" button on our homepage.
