In a year like no other, Travilah Elementary School PTA is excited to be launching face coverings for the whole family! These masks are foldable, 3 layered, and one size fits all with adjustable ear straps. For added convenience they are also machine washable and reusable. This amazing opportunity to support our school will run from now through Monday, November 23.

Please visit our Support the PTA page to access the order form!

Our former PTA President, Bryan Greenwald, is the Cubmaster for Pack 291.  The Pack has exciting events that are fun for kids and the entire family. Cubs learn about important life skills, personal safety, and environmental stewardship. They take part in fun outdoor activities, get involved in their community, and learn to be part of a team. Please drop by the Westleigh Swim Club between noon and 2:00 pm this Saturday, Oct 17th to find out more!

The Travilah PTA is looking for a volunteer to take over the Treasurer position for next year. While we use Quick Books to handle the accounting, we are looking for someone organized and wiling to volunteer about 1 – 2 hours per week to handle balancing the books, writing checks, and ensuring the PTA stays on budget. If you have specific questions please, email Elvira at Travilah.pta.treasurer@gmail.com. If you are willing to take on this responsibility for next year, email Travilah.pta.president@gmail.com and let me know!

Here is the Coronavirus Presentation from tonight’s PTA meeting.
