Founded in 1952, the Lakewood Council of PTAs (Parent
Teacher Association) has been serving Lakewood’s children and families for over
60 years. Nine PTA/PTSA units with over
1300 members in Lakewood are represented by Council: Lakewood Early Childhood
PTA, Grant Elementary, Harrison Elementary, Horace Mann Elementary, Lincoln
Elementary, Roosevelt Elementary, Garfield Middle School, Harding Middle, and
Lakewood High School. This year, the
Lakewood Council of PTAs will be hosting a “Welcome Back to School Celebration”
for all existing PTA members, new members and their families on Wednesday,
August 28th at Garfield Middle School, 6:30pm.
The “Welcome Back to School
Celebration” will feature many fun activities, crafts, food, and door prizes
intended for all ages and members of the entire family, along with a special appearance
by the Lakewood High School cheerleaders and mascot. Each PTA school, including the Early Childhood
PTA, will have a booth to sign
up new members and renew cards for existing members, a calendar of upcoming PTA
events sponsored at each school, and important information to help kids and
families have a great school year. Come
meet school leaders and get to know fellow PTA members while making some new
friends!
