Pleasant Valley Parent Teacher Association
Read-a-Thon is all about encouraging learning, imagination, and literacy. It is also our second and final PTA fundraiser of the year, with funds supporting classroom and school libraries. Kids read over 9 days (including a weekend) to reach a goal of 300 minutes. School-wide, our goal is 100,000 minutes!
What kind of reading counts? We count independent reading, being read to, audiobooks (along with the text), and graphic novels.

Volunteer Info
Hello, future volunteers! 👋 We'd love to have your help! To make sure all our students are safe, anyone who works directly with them (like helping in classrooms or chaperoning field trips) needs to have a current background check on file with the school office. These checks are good for two years.
To get or renew your background check, just fill out the form (available in the front office) and turn it in to the Front Office with a $5 processing fee. Since background checks can take time to process, please submit them early so you are ready when a volunteer shift becomes available. Should the fee pose a financial hardship, please inform the office, and the PTA will gladly cover the cost.
