ABOUT PTA
Red Rocks PTA is an organization that supports teachers, parents, and students through various activities and educational opportunities. Parental involvement is extremely important to the academic success of a child and we are very fortunate to have so many parents that are willing to volunteer within and outside the classroom.
Red Rocks PTA organizes many community events throughout the school year. These include favorites such as: Outdoor Summer Movie, Pumpkin Carving Contest, Donuts with Dad, Muffins with Mom, Paint on the Rocks, Spring Carnival and more.
In addition to our community events, the PTA works closely with the school to bring opportunities to our students that enrich their Red Rocks experience. These opportunities include coordinating before and after school clubs, the annual Reflections Art Program, author visits and curriculum enhancements from organizations like the Children’s Museum.
PTA also supports Red Rocks teachers by giving financial assistance for classroom needs and showing our appreciation through special breakfasts and dinners. Red Rocks PTA communicates to parents and teachers via the weekly Red Rocks Raccoon newsletter, our website, Friday folders, Instagram and Facebook. The Red Rocks Elementary PTA Facebook group is a closed group to ensure that all members are part of our community. Request to join today!
Red Rocks parents and teachers are exceptionally welcoming and are always open to new ideas on how to improve our children’s education and extracurricular activities. Please join us in these endeavors in making our children’s school the best it can be.
