Who can join?
PTSA membership is open to anyone -
parents, guardians, grandparents, students, staff, businesses (see
business link below).
Why join?
As a PTSA member, you have a voice in what
happens at Holmes, you will receive email updates about events and
opportunities to volunteer, and your dues directly support Holmes
PTSA programs. Members receive a free Student Directory, extra
door prize tickets at Bingo and special concession deals at select
home sporting events. Students are welcome to join PTSA. You also benefit when you shop with
PTA business partners (click
here for a list).
When can I join?
Each school year our
PTSA holds a membership drive in the fall. Our first deadline is
September 10th (send it in along with your Student Directory
information). If you miss the September deadline, you have until January 15th
to join. Your membership needs to be renewed
each year and if you have students at more than one school, remember
that PTA's are separate. Joining Holmes PTSA does not mean you are
also a member of your elementary and/or high school PTA. Your dues
support the programs at the school where you are a member.
How Do I Join...
Have your student submit your dues by
attaching them to the Green Form in the First Day Folder
information in August. Place form and payment in an envelope marked
Membership and have them drop it off in the Holmes front office. Or,
you may print the form below and bring it to the front office with
payment during regular office hours. Make your check payable to Holmes PTSA.
You many also send your form/payment to Holmes (PTSA
Membership, 2455 Mesa Road, Colorado Springs, CO 80904) Thank you
for your support and for taking an active role in your student's
experience here at Holmes.
Dues...
Holmes PTSA dues are $7.00 for the year ($1.25 cents stays with our school and the remainder supports the county,
state and National PTA). Our PTSA receives resources and training
from these different levels of PTA - which in turn benefits you! For
example, Holmes students are able to participate in the Reflections
program, Colorado PTA updates members about legislative issues that affect
education, and PTA members have the opportunity to attend training
sessions at the beginning of the year as well as the state PTA
Convention.
