Wilson PTA

WHS PTA

Welcome to Wilson High School! Whether this is your first year as a Wilson a parent, your last year, or somewhere in between, we know how important it is to feel well informed about what is going on in your child’s school and to feel represented. The PTA strives to keep parents informed, advocates for the entire parent community, and provides you a way to make a difference in your child’s school and education experience. We all want our children to have a high school experience that prepares them for their next adventure in a safe environment where they can learn and grow. Parent participation is a very important piece of this equation.

PTA is one of three major parent organizations at Wilson. The other two are Boosters and the Wilson Foundation. Over the course of this year all three organizations will be working collaboratively. We will also be evaluating the range of activities that PTA has supported in the past, and could support in the future, with the objective of providing maximum benefit for students, parents, teachers, and the community. We want your input in this process!

Here are some ways you can get involved today:

Dues are $30.00 individual, $50 couple, and include a copy of the Wilson Student Directory.
- To join, go to the SchoolPay website and join under the “Nonprofit Groups” tab
There are many ways to pitch in, and volunteering is great way to get to know staff and other parents.
Above and beyond your membership dues, PTA needs your financial contributions to provide support for programs school-wide. Donations are tax-deductible. Your employer may provide matching funds for time or money you contribute—be sure to ask!
PTA has three-four meetings a year. Meeting dates will be posted on the school calendar and reminders will be included in the weekly informational emails. In addition to our PTA meetings we offer Parent Education Nights throughout the school year on topics relating to the high school experience. Currently scheduled meetings are: 9/16/2020, 1/20/2021, and 5/19/2021.

We look forward to meeting and working with you this coming year!

Beth Cooke, PTA President
Marci Forbes, Vice President
Michelle Marsden, Secretary

PTA Sponsored Activities

Scrip

Scrip is an easy and cost-free way to support the PTA. This program works with local and national vendors, including some of your favorite grocers, restaurants and retailers (see order form for a complete list).

Participants receive gift cards and the vendors give a percentage of the proceeds back to Wilson. Who doesn't buy groceries and gas? Or use a meal delivery service? Last year we made over $3,000, but could do much better with more participation!

We want to make it very easy for you - our volunteer coordinator generally orders cards weekly and will make arrangements to mail or deliver them to you. We happily accept orders by phone, postal mail, e-mail, or text (we can fill out the paperwork for you). Just give us a list and then mail a check payable to Wilson HS PTA. When available, delivery can be made to school and you or with your permission, your student, can pick the order up from the Wilson Bookkeeper, room 120.

Orders/Questions contact: Treasurer.WilsonHS.PTA @gmail.com, or our coordinator, Martha Schulte at schulte@easystreet.net or 503-244-5072. Ger you Scrip Order Form here.
