The Kaiser PTA is a local unit of the Oakland Council, Peralta District of The California Congress of Parents, Teachers, and Students, Inc. At Kaiser our goal is 100% participation among of our families. Membership is obtained through paying District PTA dues.

PTA membership will provide full voting privileges, access to National and State PTA resources and discounts, a Kaiser School Directory, and most importantly, strengthen the PTA voice so that policy makers in all areas will hear a strong, unified message on behalf of our children.

PTA Association meetings are generally held at 6:30 p.m., on the first Wednesday of any month of the school year, unless otherwise changed by the Executive Board.

PTA Board meetings are held the last Wednesday of each month in the library. If there is an item an association member would like to have put on the agenda, they may contact PTA president Renee Sanchez. Minutes from the board meetings are kept in the office.

The PTA funds a number of important programs for the school, including:

• Computer maintenance
• Our library
• Health and Safety Instruction
• Orf Music Program
• Arts enrichment
• Teachers assistants and supplies
• Emergency supplies
• Parent education workshops
  

Some of the notable recent accomplishments of the PTA have been the purchase of playground equipment and matting for the school yards.

The work of the PTA is carried out through its Executive Board and through numerous program committees including the following:

• Arts Enrichment Programs
• Walk-A-Thon
• Scholastic Book Fair
• Fall Auction
• eScrip Membership
• Health and Safety

Please notify Principal Avent or any member of the PTA Board if you would be willing to help out on one of these committees.

The PTA raises funds through a variety of sources, including donations, eScript and memberships. The two annual events that are our largest fund-raisers are the Fall Auction and Spring Walk-A-Thon. Watch for details about these two important events.
