Volunteer Opportunities
While volunteering is NOT a requirement for PTA members, we're always looking for help!
We often seek volunteers for in-school events, evening PTA events, chairs for events, and board members for our PTA. Opportunities will be posted in our weekly newsletters, on this website, in our Facebook group, and through the school's communications.
Join the PTA
Get involved with your student's experience at Division Street and form relationships with Division Street faculty/staff and other families!
The cost to join is $5 per adult and $4 per student. Special benefits available to PTA members for events. Memberships must be renewed yearly!
Do I have to go to meetings? Do I have to volunteer? Do I have to attend events? Do I have to sell candles?
No, no, no and no. When joining the PTA, there is no obligation to participate. (However, if you do want to participate with us, please do!)
