*Contribute with your time. Step up this year and say, I’ll participate on a committee. Sign up to help out with Winterfest. 8th grade parents, you can help plan and host the 8th grade graduation party. 6th and 7th grade parents: Help prepare and host the 8th grade graduation reception. Additionally, we need parents to bring great fundraising ideas to our PTA that will bring in needed funds without requiring the PTA put out a huge expense to pay for them. What is new out there that you’d like to buy for your children? Come to a PTA meeting and see what else you can do. I know everyone is busy, but look at the school calendar to see if there is a meeting or two you can make this school year.
*Step up and join a committee. It's easy and your input is always welcome!
*Contribute financially. When you join the PTA, the OOJH PTA does not get your full $10 in dues. The OOJH PTA gets $5.75, but we must send the other $4.25 to the Illinois and National PTA. That’s more than 40 percent of the money we get from your annual dues that we never get to use locally. While that money is put to good use at the state and national levels, it is not ours to use here at Old Orchard Junior High. The PTA is a non-profit organization, so any additional contributions you make to the OOJH PTA are fully tax deductible. Please consider making such a donation to the OOJH PTA.
Please contact us at oojhpta@gmail to let us know how you’d like to step up and help your students and all of our students at OOJH.
