Welcome!

The PTA (Parent Teacher Association) is your chance -- as a parent or guardian -- to get involved in your child's education. This national nonprofit organization is comprised of millions of families, students, teachers, administrators, and business and community leaders working toward parent involvement in  the educational success of our children.

The Kemp Mill PTA is a local unit of the national organization that is completely focused on parent and student engagement at KMES. We hold PTA meetings four times a year (in English and Spanish), as well as organize many events at the school to engage KMES students and parents.

How can parents/guardians get involved? 

The first step is by becoming a member of the KMES PTA!

The yearly dues are $10.00 per parent/guardian/teacher. Membership dues go to supporting programs and events that are outside the school's budget, such as the annual Scholastic Book Fair, Family Movie Nights, after-school programs, and school field trips, just to name of few.

  • Volunteer. Not everyone has time, but if you do volunteer, it can be a lot of fun! There are lots of things to do from setting up for an event to making a dessert for our bake sale, and volunteering at the Book Fair.  Watch the Google Group and your child's Friday Folder for opportunities.

Can you give TWO HOURS a year to support our KMES students?

 We encourage PTA members to be involved in any way that works for them! This year, we are encouraging parents and guardians to think about how they can give at least two hours of their time or talents to support the PTA’s activities.

A parent or guardian may volunteer to help at a PTA event, like the Book Fair or a Movie Night, reach out to other parents via phone or text about PTA events, attend a PTA meeting, or donate a food item for a staff/teacher appreciation event. These are just a few ways to become involved! We welcome your input and ideas!

¡Bienvenidos!

El PTA (Asociación de Padres y Maestros) es su oportunidad - como padre/madre - a involucrarse en la educación de su hijo/a. El PTA es una organización nacional sin fines de lucro de millones de familias, estudiantes, maestros, administradores y líderes empresariales y comunitarios que trabajan hacia la participación de los padres en las escuelas y el éxito educativo de sus hijos. El PTA de Kemp Mill es una "unidad" local de la organización nacional que está completamente enfocado en los padres de familias y los hijos de Kemp Mill Elementary.

La membresía en la PTA es importante para su escuela. Las cuotas van directamente a los programas de apoyo y eventos que están fuera de presupuesto de la escuela, como los programas después de la escuela y los viajes escolares. Un fuerte PTA local también tiene el oído del condado cuando se toman las decisiones presupuestarias. La membresía en el PTA de Kemp Mill no significa que se le requiere para ser voluntario para eventos de recaudación de fondos o de cualquiera de los programas. Nos encantan los voluntarios, pero entendemos que no todo el mundo tiene el tiempo. Las cuotas anuales ($10.00) son tan importantes como la participación de voluntarios.


Entonces, ¿qué está pasando?
