We provide vital communications programs and volunteer support for Brentwood Elementary programs.
Homeroom parents are the lifeblood of the PTA, communicating important information to each classroom throughout the year. The activities of homeroom parents are coordinated by the homeroom parent coordinator - a super important role.
Since its inception in 2012, we have primarily been responsible for recruiting volunteers for the library's big events (e.g., book fairs, poetry cafe setup and take-down), helping get the word out about library events and news through the Bark and social media, lending logistical support on the day of author visits, and organizing coffee donations for the poetry cafe. The events themselves are organized and operated by Ms. Slaten and Ms. Tigelaar, our librarians.
The PTA also provides full or partial financial support for many library programs, such as:
While there are also several other major funding sources for library books including book fair profits and district funds, the extra support the PTA provides has helped Ms. Slaten and Ms. Tigelaar build one of the best school library collections around!
New in Fall 2019, the Diversity Committee’s mission is to develop programming that celebrates diversity and inclusion in the entire Brentwood community.
Our PTA Advocacy & Legislative group is tasked with keeping us up to date about the legislative issues affecting Texas students, and our opportunities to influence them. Additionally, it’s always a good time to advocate for equitable public education for all students at the district and state levels!
The PTA helps Brentwood Elementary parents stay informed through this website, our social media channels, and our monthly newsletter - The Bulldog Bark.
