• Mt. Tabor Middle School PTA
    We support MTMS by funding classroom grants, teacher reimbursement of classroom supplies, counselor supplies, library activities, band activities, and other school programs. We coordinate Staff Appreciation Week, Restaurant Partners, Trail Blazers outings, and arrange drives for families in need. We design school spirit wear for the school community to purchase. We do whatever we can to support teachers, staff, and students. We meet at least three (3) times a year. We recruit volunteers to help with MTMS and PTA activities. We sponsor special programs during the year to strengthen the MTMS community. As a PTA, we work with local, state, and national organizations to advocate for children.

    Volunteer
    We have opportunities large and small throughout the year. As the PTA board works to determine fundraising activities for the MTMS community, there will be more opportunities to volunteer.

Current key opportunities are listed here: 

    We are actively seeking the following PTA board positions.

    Keep a lookout for these and other great volunteer opportunities on our Facebook page, on our PTA website, and in the PTA section of the Principal’s weekly newsletter. 

    Donation Drive
    We try not to bother with lots of fundraising programs. Instead, we seek to raise $3,000 in direct donations each year from members and the community. You can donate by writing a check to MTMS PTA (mail it to the MTMS office) or through pps.SchoolPay.com, under the “Nonprofit Groups” tab.

    AmazonSmile and Fred Meyer Community Rewards
    Shopping through AmazonSmile and Fred Meyer Community Rewards provide donations to the MTMS PTA at no cost to you. You can sign up for either (or both) programs at any time and choose Mt. Tabor Middle School PTA as the organization that will receive a donated portion of your spending. Information about the programs can be found by searching the programs online.
    Restaurant Partners
    We generally have several nights a year when we revenue share with local restaurants. This is an important revenue stream for the PTA to support MTMS. Stay tuned to the PTA website, PTA Facebook page, and the Principal’s Friday newsletter for details as they become available.
    BottleDrop Give
    When you participate in the program, you fill the blue donations bags with recyclable bottles (plastic, aluminum, and glass – no need to sort them) and then drop them off at any BottleDrop location. BottleDrop will count them and give the refund to the MTMS PTA. When you use one of the blue bags from MTMS, they are labeled with all the information needed to apply the refund to our PTA.  BottleDrop bags can be picked up at the MTMS front office.
