YEARBOOK

The PTA designs and coordinates the sale of the Teravista Elementary Yearbook each year.  We offer the yearbook to the Teravista Elementary community as a give back in that we don’t typically make money on the sale of the yearbooks.  Instead, we use one year’s sales to fund the next year’s production costs.

VOLUNTEERING: 2,000+ Hrs

In addition to giving back financially, we give our time every year to assist in eye and hearing screenings, cafeteria support, picture day, book fairs, Kindergarten Round Up and re-shelving books in the library and literacy library.
