PTA logoPTA Meetings

The Oxford Parent Teacher Association (PTA) meets on the third Thursday of every month. After some brief PTA business, meetings may feature speakers on a variety of academic, family and school subjects and provide a forum for discussion and information exchange between families and staff.

Role of the Parent Teacher Association

Fundraising

The PTA’s fundraisers are crucial to paying for school programs, enrichments and supplies, such as art classes for all classrooms, Kindergarten music classes, field trips, books and teacher supplies. See the Who Funds What page to see just how much the Oxford community’s contributions via the PTA keep Oxford’s curriculum robust in post-state budget cuts.

Building Community

Fundraising is only one part of the PTA. Our goal is to provide many community-building events and opportunities too – fun events, meetings, communications, and service projects that bring our Oxford community together and allow us to get to know one another. The bottom line is that family support and community presence help our children to grow up healthy, smart and strong, so the collaboration of parents and guardians with our school takes on critical importance. Parent and guardian contributions of time and talent through the PTA enrich and strengthen our school community, and our children’s experience. PTA volunteers serve as room representatives, class room assistants event coordinators, and fundraisers. Whenever there is a need for help, we ask our parents and guardians to pitch in on behalf of what is best for our children and our school community.
