welcome, thunderbirds!

 

Our PTA is a dedicated group of parents, teachers, and administrators who work together to provide resources and programs to all families in our school community.

 

The PTA supports the quality of education at Trailwood Elementary with strategic investments in curriculum materials, enrichment and instructional programs, and general support of our community that directly enhance the school's mission of excellence for all Trailwood students.

     

happy fall, thunderbirds!

 

 

Thunderbird families, we are so excited you are here! Fall promises to be a fun and exciting time at Trailwood, and we can't wait to see you at some awesome events soon!

 

Questions about the PTA? Please feel free to reach out to our PTA President, Jamie Reasons! 

   

Thank you, grade level party hosts!

 

Our fall adult grade level happy hours were a huge success, thanks in part to the fabulous generosity of our hosts! Trailwood parents and guardians had so much fun meeting other members of our community and connecting with old friends.

 

Thank you to everyone who helped to raise some important funds for our PTA!

Volunteer as a wingman

 

Calling all Trailwood dads and father figures!

 

Please consider taking a half-day or full-day out of your busy schedules and spending some time in your child's classroom as a Wingman! This is a great opportunity to interact with the kids and see what they do every day! Your schedule will vary depending on the needs of the day, but you can plan on spending most of your day with your kiddo(s) in the classroom, on the playground or at specials.

 

Volunteers can choose the dates and times (half-days or full-days) and can float between classrooms (if more than one child is attending Trailwood). Sign up at the link below!

 

Please contact Leif Peterson with any questions. 

 

 

    become an mvp and make a difference

 

 

We hope you'll consider becoming an MVP this year! This designation is given to adult volunteers in SMSD who would like the opportunity to work with/supervise kids on their own. These relationships are positively powerful for the child (and the adult), and we can always use people to serve in this role!

 

For more information on the MVP program and training dates, please use the link below. Please contact social worker Brenna Sandefur-Farrar if you have any additional questions.

 

  

2023 - 2024 PTA MEETINGs

  

We hope you'll join us on Tuesday, December 12th, at 8:15 am in the Commons for our monthly PTA meeting. This is also our Member Appreciation Meeting; please come and enjoy some yummy treats, compliments of the PTA!

 

Please come with your questions about everything Trailwood. Our monthly meetings are great opportunities to get to know each other and find out more about our fabulous community! Everyone is invited to attend! Children are always welcome!

 

We hope to see you there!
