Dear Families, 

 

I hope you had a great summer and you are as excited as I am for the 2023-2024 school year at Foster City Elementary School.

Thank you for visiting the PTA website! While clicking around, you'll find general information about the PTA, important dates for upcoming events, forms and descriptions of the wonderful programs sponsored by the PTA.

 

In order for the PTA to continue to be a success, we rely on parent volunteers. Please make sure to head over to the "Volunteer" section of the website to find ways that you can help out!

Our PTA is a dedicated community of parents, faculty and staff who strive to enhance student learning and enrich the lives of our students. We support our children’s education by raising funds to bridge the gap between state funding and what’s needed to provide a high quality, well-rounded education. Your contributions go a long way to fund initiatives that directly support teachers, sponsor educational programs financially and through volunteer support, and build our community.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions and check back often as we continue to update the website with new information about what is happening with the PTA, school and our community.

 

I look forward to a great year!

All the best,

 

Katy Kendall
