General Meeting for PTA members

Save the Date!

10/28/24

We encourage all members to attend!

Join us for our first General Meeting of the year. Come and meet the PTA board, and learn about all the ways in which we support our school. Take advantage of this exciting opportunity to have your voice heard. Plus, we will have a reptile show this night!

We are so thankful for our PTA members and invite you and your family to join us for a night of fun!

Come learn about cool creatures that crawl and slither! 

On October 28th, there will be a brief general meeting, then a presentation by Austin Reptile Shows with opportunities to view and touch live reptiles. 

Enter via the side doors by the cafeteria before 6:00, as doors will lock at that time. We ask that at least one member of the family be a '24-'25 TVE PTA Member. If you would like to attend and have not joined PTA, you can do so here. 

Schedule is as follows: 

• 5:45 Check In

• 6:00 Doors Lock

• 6:00 General Meeting

• 6:15 - 7:15 Reptile Show

  
  

  Please RSVP so we can get a head count for the event. We look forward to seeing you!
