SUPPORT ENRICHMENT & EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS AT EMS!

2025-2026

 

PTA Membership is the cornerstone of our fundraising efforts and allows us to provide enrichment opportunities for our school’s exceptional student-centered programs. Your contribution allows us to provide academic enrichment, educational opportunities, community & social events, communications, and support for all EMS students.

 

In the 2025-2026 school year, the PTA will strive to provide quality programs for both students and parents and support EMS teachers and staff. Your donations will make these efforts possible!

 

How much should I give? 

Thanks to the generous support of our community, EMS students enjoyed diverse enrichment and social activities in art, culture, dance, music, poetry, field trips, traveling exhibits, digital safety and self-motivation speakers, and more to support and complement classroom education. Please see our 2024-2025 Year in Review for details.

 

Last year, we spent $114 per student, with an average contribution of $63 per student. 

This year, we aim to increase our per-student expenditure to approximately $130 per student on all of its initiatives that benefit EMS and reach 100% membership.

 

Your membership donations help to make that possible. We have many different membership levels, and every dollar goes towards programs that benefit EMS students. Our goal is 100% family participation, and the earlier we receive your donation, the earlier we can put it to work for all our students.
