Parent Teacher Association

The name says it all: Parent Teacher Association. It’s about parents and teachers working together… together to improve the lives of all children. And it’s working on a national scale, state-wide scale, county scale, and even right here at Wiley.

You know the reasons to get involved in your child’s school. But you may not know how easy it is to make a difference.

Every donation of your time enriches the lives of Wiley students. Whether your time is spent helping with a single school event or holding a year-long board position; whether you can donate a little time or a lot; whether your talents are in gardening or nursing; whether you find your extra time at night or during the school day, Wiley needs you.

For a list of committee positions for the 2007-2008 school year, simple scroll down this page. For descriptions of those positions and information about each of the committees, take a look at the following:
