COMMUNITY SERVICE
Support
We meet with the school as well as, survey parents and teachers to determine Nantucket's top needs! Then we work to fill the need!
fundraise
We host a Boosterthon Fun Run every other year. In the off years we run two small fundraisers, one in the Fall and one
in the Spring.
PTA's mission is to make every child’s potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children.
HOSPITALITY
The hospitality committee has the very enjoyable task of showing appreciation and support for our wonderful faculty and staff. The committee provides meals and small gifts throughout the year. Volunteers are needed to donate and/or shop for food and set-up and clean up from events.
The spirit wear and school kits committee runs both drives. Volunteers will assist with selecting vendors and options available for sale, collect payments, and distribute purchases.
FUNDRAISING
The community events and programs committee plans free family events for our school community. In addition to determining what events the PTA will sponsor, the committee members work with outside vendors and partners as needed; coordinate use of the building and facilities with school staff; publicize and promote the event; coordinate event volunteers and manage the event itself, including set-up and clean-up.
