Meadows Elementary School

Like all PTAs across the country, the Meadows PTA is an organization made up of volunteers (you). Its purpose is to promote the education of children in the home, school, and community. The PTA is the primary interfacing organization that allows parents, teachers and staff to cooperate and collaborate intelligently in the education of your children.

The PTA at Meadows provides an enormous amount of support to the school through coordinating volunteers and fundraising that specifically benefits Meadows. The PTA provides a rich community-building landscape through campus events such as the Halloween Carnival, offers financial assistance for classroom materials through grants and stipends for teachers, and creates the necessary infrastructure for volunteers, teachers and administrators to work closely together to coordinate the best possible school experience for our children. The Meadows PTA will introduce you to a great variety of new activities and opportunities to share your special talents. And, it is a great way to meet the parents of your child’s classmates.

Join the Meadows PTA for an annual fee of only $10 per parent. (Membership form is here.) In addition, we ask for a nominal donation of $50 per child to fund the PTA-sponsored programs. We also enthusiastically encourage you to respond generously to the MBEF campaign. The PTA and Manhattan Beach Education Foundation (www.mbef.org) are both committed to providing the highest level of education for our children.
