The Windermere Elementary PTA invites you to join us in making a difference in the education and quality of life for our children. We all know that children learn more and have better lives when parents, teachers, students, and the community work together. The PTA brings all these groups together to share thoughts and ideas about programs and activities that benefit our children. Our PTA provides information and resources that strengthen these relationships.

Download the form and give it to your child's teacher or place it in the PTA mailbox in the front lobby in an envelope labeled "PTA Membership".
