Welcome to the 2012/2013 School Year!

The PTA welcomes you back for another great year at John Muir Elementary!  We have plans for many fun and exciting events this school year including the third annual Walk-a-thon, Science Night, Pasta Feed, and the Auction Dinner Dance just to name a few. We look forward to your support for this year's fundraisers, they are a crucial part of the PTA budget.  Last year we were able to fund the Timberwolf reading program, noon duty supervisors, para-educators, field trip buses for all grade levels, 5th grade planners, 5th grade promotion, Teacher Appreciation Week, spirit-wear sporting our brand new Timberwolf logo, family bingo night, and snacks during the week of STAR testing.

We not only encourage all of you to show your commitment to JME by joining PTA, we ask that you show your support by participating in the numerous events and programs that we have planned throughout the year.  The children love to see their parents, grandparents and family members participating at school. Your participation might be that of a committee member, volunteer, or as an attendee.  Whatever level of participation you select, your time and involvement will certainly be appreciated.  

Our goal this year is to have 300 PTA members.  Remember not just mom and dad can join, we welcome grandparents, aunts, uncles, neighbors, etc.  There will be a contest between the classrooms and the winning room will receive a pizza party provided by the PTA. 

Thank you again, and we look forward to a successful year at John Muir!
