PTA is the largest advocacy group and is committed to improving the quality of education and the welfare of children everywhere.

Primary PTA goals are:
  • To promote the welfare of children and youth in home, school, community, and place of worship
  • To raise the standards of home life
  • To secure adequate laws for the care and protection of children and youth
  • To develop between educators and the general public such united efforts as will secure for all children and youth the highest advantages in physical, mental, social, and spiritual education
We would like to welcome you as a volunteer to Murdock and express our appreciation for the time that you will be sharing with us. To become a volunteer, you only need the willingness to share yourself, your time, and your talents with the children of Murdock.

Some programs involve only a small amount of time. Many projects can be completed at home, so working parents and parents with preschool children can help us, too! Your involvement helps ensure the success of our students. Please feel free to contact any PTA Board Member listed for further information.

Please show your support in our school and children by investing in a PTA Membership:

    The cost of a membership is $8.00 per person ($16.00 for 2 parents)

All of us benefit from PTA!
Help us achieve 100% membership again!

For more information on the PTA and how you can help, please contact Nicole Williams or Jen Katz at ptamurdock@gmail.com
