Membership in the PTA is vital to all PTA's. It allows you to more fully participate in your child's education. DES PTA Members are eligible to vote on the budget as well as on the priorities that the PTA places on various activities. Members also receive a school directory and are automatically added to our List Serve. Membership forms can be downloaded from this site and returned to school via your child's backpack.
Our PTA List Serve is an email communication tool that we use to send out information about upcoming events, volunteer opportunities and, in conjunction with the school, emergency notifications. Join our List Serve by entering your email address in the box at the bottom of the Home Page and then clicking on the adjacent "join now" link.
