Join a PTA Committee
The PTA’s committees are where planning and brainstorming take place and are the way parent efforts are organized in the school. Committees generally meet in the evenings once a month at the school, but may meet at other times as well.
Each PS 163 school program – General Education, Dual-Language, Gifted & Talented, and Special Education – is represented by a dedicated PTA committee looking for ways to improve the program.
In addition, committees of concerned parents meet throughout the year or as needed, to work on school-wide issues like fundraising, recess, safety, equipment and supplies, and after-school programming.
Other PTA committees are formed as required to focus on planning a specific event like the Fall Harvest Festival, School-wide Clean-Up Day or Spring Fair. You are welcome to join an ongoing committee at any time. For information or to volunteer for a committee or just to help out with an activity or at an event, simply attend a PTA meeting and volunteer, or contact a member of the PTA Executive Board by phone or e-mail.
