What is PTA and what does it stand for?

PTA stands for Parent Teacher Association.

 We are an organization with a mission to make our school and community a better place for our children to learn, grow, and thrive.

As a PTA, we are part of the larger chapters: 33rd District, California PTA, and National PTA. 

Our Mission & Goals

The mission of the PTA is to build strong relationships among parents, teachers and administration in support of our students. With the help of our amazing Niemes community, we plan and organize a mix of educational and fun school activities in order to provide support to our students, teachers, and administration.

Promote Academic Enrichment

The PTA recognizes the importance of programs that encourage learning in fun and engaging ways. Our success relies on the support of dedicated volunteers who will help us run a variety of programming including academic enrichment programs IXL, Renaissance, Science Night and the Book Fair.

Build Community

Our school is what bonds us together, so it makes sense that one of our goals is to establish a sense of strong community. We encourage all parents and students to participate in events such as the Fall Festival, Family Dance or Family Nights.

Support our School

The PTA is a non-profit organization, but we do try to raise additional funds to support our teachers with school-wide office supplies and materials, as well as equipment needed for Garden and Science Lab. We also typically fund one capital improvement project for the campus per year. Our programs are funded with various fundraisers throughout the year.
