Gayton Elementary PTA

Assist with the beautification of the buildings and grounds. Projects may include maintaining planters, weeding, improving signage as well as other projects as the team deems worthwhile. Time requirements are flexible, and can include evenings and weekends. This is a perfect job to get the family involved in making our school look great!

Assist in working scheduled times during the Fall (usually in early November) and Spring book fairs in the library, in addition to assisting with setup and take down. Volunteers may also be asked to provide snacks/treats for teacher preview.

Assist in collecting and sorting box tops from classrooms.

Come join the fun and be a part of our Spring Carnival! This is our most exciting (and most profitable) fundraiser of the year. The carnival is only successful with the help of our dedicated committee and our 250 parent volunteers. There is a job for everyone! Up for a bigger challenge? Sign-up for Carnival Lead, Auction Lead, Vendor Lead, Bake Sale or Cake Walk. Looking for a smaller commitment? Volunteer for a 30- minute game shift, a cake donation or set-up/clean-up crew.

This committee plans and executes the most exciting day of the year for the fifth grade class. If you have a fifth grader and want to be involved in something that directly impacts them this is a great opportunity and promises to be a lot of fun.

With the help of volunteers, this committee provides refreshments and morale boosters for teacher/staff and parent functions throughout the year. Some of the events include teacher breakfasts and luncheons, quarterly staff mailbox treats and goody bags for Parent/Teacher Conferences. Volunteers are needed to send in food items and/or assist at these events.
