Support the PTA

Membership

Your annual membership in the Wood PTA is the first step in supporting our PTA. The membership fee is very affordable ($5-$20 per year), and gives you the right to vote at any of our PTA meetings. By becoming a member of the local PTA, you will also become a member of the county PTA (MCCPTA), the state PTA and the National PTA. Part of your membership dues pay for those memberships, the other parts pay for the student directory and other materials you receive at PTA meetings.

Volunteer

Many hands make light work! Come and help us out: Whether you just have a little time to spare, like to work from home, like to work at school, like to shop, or like to take on a committee or officer's position, we have a job for you! Please complete our new volunteer sign-up sheet or contact our PTA VP of Volunteers, Terri Beard. Without our dedicated PTA volunteers we would not be able to offer the many activities and services that make Wood a great place to be for students, parents, staff and teachers.

Fundraising

The PTA fundraising activities are many. We collect funds through our membership dues, donations from local restaurants and retailers, the fall fundraiser, Box Tops, Labels for Education, grocery store club cards, etc. There are many easy ways how you can help raise money without costing you anything extra! Please read more here...

Fall & Spring Fundraiser - Little Cesar's and Otis Spunkmeyer Cookie Dough starting in the fall. Forms and instructions are sent home with the students.

Restaurant Fundraiser - look for specially announced "Night's Out" at local restaurants which will donate a percentage of their sales to the Wood PTA.

Scholastic Book Fair - usually we have two book fairs, one in the fall and one in the spring in the school's Media Center. Students will receive a Book Wish List and parents are encouraged to shop during school hours and at specially announced evening hours. Stock up on some books for your child's independent reading requirements or the summer reading list.

Donations - especially for Staff Appreciations events, we are asking for either food or money donations to help with the expense. Please look for special announcements and bring your donations to school on the day of the event. Checks should be made out to "Wood PTA".
