Join the PTA.... Here's Why

If you join the PTA at the carnival your name will be entered into a drawing and you can win a REALLY GREAT PRIZE!

Joining the PTA does not mean that you have to volunteer with activities or even come to our meetings (even though we would LOVE to have you). Your $7.00 helps pay for your child's field trips, classroom incentives, awards and recognition, Halloween parties, Valentine's Day parties, Christmas parties, Dr. Seuss Day, Reflections Contest, Birthday table, and much much more

All but $.50 cents or your $7.00 stays right here at Roy Elementary School. The $.50 that does not stay at our school goes to fund our local PTA council.

We would love to have your support and if you are interested in volunteering with the PTA, we will make it worth your time.

Volunteers don't necessarily have the time, they just have the heart! :)


We hope this answers some of your questions about Roy Elementary PTA.

Plastic Bag Recycling (Fundraiser)

Please encourage students and others to recycle their plastic bags. Bring them to room 33 (for now) and put them by the counter. For every 60 gallon filled collection bag we fill the school gets $5.00. So let's do it to earn money for our school, and help kids understand the value of recycling plastic.
