 Without the PFA (Parent Faculty Association), there would be a huge void in enrichment activities for your child! The PFA needs you and your own special talents. Consider volunteering. You get to meet lots of great people, it's fun, and pretty rewarding to see your results and know you made a difference in the lives of many children, including your own! Plus, it gives your child bragging rights! There are many ways you can help out; here are some of them:
