Board Positions

Scott Elementary Home and School Association is your typical PTA or PTO, only under a different name. Home & School encourages each parent to be as involved in the H&S as their time and energy allows. With everyone at a different stage in their lives and different ability to commit to various volunteer opportunities, Scott H&S provides many options that will give the flexibility and involvement that best fits your life.

Volunteering not only enhances the educational opportunities for your student at Scott Schoo, but can also bring many rewarding memories for you. Young children love to see their parents involved at their school. If you would like additional information about various committee's please contact the Home & School Board members! Some committees are active in late summer as their events happen at the start of the school year. We hope you will get involved.
