PTSA Membership Drive
Greetings Gladiator Families,
The JCHS PTSA needs your help! As of right now, we have only reached approximately 65% of our membership goal for this school year. If we are unable to increase our membership base, we will have to make the difficult decision to potentially cut funding to programs that benefit our students such as Honor Roll events and classroom mini grants.
Did you know that 100% of your PTSA membership dollars goes directly back to the school to support your students? Each year our membership numbers are dropping. Which means each year there is less money for us to spend on student scholarships, classroom mini grants to enhance the learning experience, and wellness programs every month for student benefit, just to name a few. This is a critical year for us. Please help us build back our membership base so we can expand programs that benefit our kids! There are various levels of membership and any donation is greatly appreciated.
Please visit our website at www.jchsptsa.com for more information and to join.
To those families who have already joined, we THANK YOU for your support!
