Welcome from the 2021-22 PTA Officers

Welcome to a new school year and to our wonderful school community! We are excited to be here as your Parent Teacher Association.

This year will be memorable for sure! More than ever, our children need the strong support of both parents and teachers. We want you to be a part of this amazing Mountain team and invite you to join Mountain's PTA.

Joining PTA will keep you informed, give you voice, and provide opportunities for you to volunteer at our great school.

Joining PTA doesn't require any commitment other than paying dues of $6.19 and completing a membership form. After that you can be involved at whatever level you feel comfortable with. Membership forms and payment will be received completely online this year.

To join, click here to be redirected to the membership form and secure payment page.

Our first meeting will be held on Monday, August 30 at 12:10 pm in the school library. Young children are welcome! We look forward to working with you all to make this a positive and successful year for each of our children.

Your Mountain PTA Board,

Esther Smidt - President

Chelsie Wilson & Lissie Ham - Vice Presidents

Liz Daly - Treasurer

Natalie Morgan - Secretary

 1. FILM FESTIVAL - Let us buy you a cup of coffee! Just stop in Film Festival any day this week for a free coffee, tea, Boba or tasty treat. Mention you are Mountain Staff & they will check you off the master list. 1 per person, please.

 2. PAJARITO BREW PUB & GRILL - Your PTA would like to offer you a $15 discount at Pajarito Brew Pub and Grill on any order. Online ordering please add "Go Mountain Lions" plus staff member name, in the comment section and they will refund $15 back to you. You may also order via phone.

Mountain School Parade

The Mountain Elementary Staff are having a car parade through the Mountain Neighborhoods this Saturday April 25th at 10am. Come out and wave (keeping the appropriate 6ft social distance of course!)

It starts at the Pajarito Complex on Arizona Avenue (star on map) and winds it way through the northern part of the school area, towards the school through North community before heading to Quemazon and finally Western area.

We’d love to be able to wave to all the school community!

Dress up in your school colors, wave, cheer and take photographs and video of course.

PTA meeting on Monday April 6th is via Google Meet

Please join us on Monday April 6th at 12.10pm on Google Meet for the PTA meeting.

If you need a Google Meet Invitation please email officers@mountainpta.org and we will send you one! The current membership should already have received one.

The meeting agenda is here and we plan to discuss what the PTA can support at school now that the rest of the events for the school year have been canceled. We already have some ideas, but would love to hear your thoughts!

Halloween Carnival Thank You

/

Halloween Carnival was a fun day for all. The different format worked brilliantly in the lower playground, with glorious weather! The Carnival and Silent Auction raised $10,000 which means PTA met its fundraising goals for the year!

Your fundraising support allows the PTA to continue to support our wonderful school staff in providing opportunities for students.

Please come along to our next PTA meeting to help influence how this money is spent in the school! Next meeting Monday November 4th at 12.10pm
