Below are the open positions and a brief description. If you are interested in taking on one of these positions or have further questions, please contact the PTA [email protected]. The PTA can only continue to provide services to Patton students if we have volunteers to run our committees. Most positions are minimal involvement and most can be done when it is convenient for you. Becoming a committee chair is a great way to be more involved with the PTA and the Patton community.
Do you have a question or a great idea you want to share with PTA? A topic you would like to see on a PTA Meeting Agenda? Please email your ideas to Patton PTA at [email protected]. We are always looking for help for upcoming events and committees and would love to hear from you! Thank you!
