Block Party Donations & Volunteers Needed!

8/13/2025 8:00 am

We are so excited for our Block Party this Friday, and need YOUR help! We are most in need of donations for our snack table. This is a great way to volunteer without a huge time commitment!

Or, you can take a shift during the event! We are in need of PTSA members or BOD members for our sales shifts.

Thanks for all you do for our community and for helping to make this event a success for our kiddos and families.

After School Programs Need You!

8/2/2025 10:00 am

Our PTSA is on the lookout for a volunteer After School Program (ASP) Coordinator for the 2025–26 school year! This would be for a program start in late fall or winter (January) session. 

Without a coordinator, we will not be able to offer ASP during the school year, so let’s make it happen together! Interested or want to learn more? Reach out to our PTSA president, Molly at molly@twainptsa.org.
