Who Are We?

The Emerson PTA is made up of an extraordinary group of dedicated volunteers who are committed to the well-being of all Emerson Parkside Academy children and families. We are an essential element of our wonderful school. Our goal is to keep parents and guardians informed regarding issues and programs concerning the education, health, and welfare of children and families at Emerson Parkside Academy.

Membership

We are a membership organization promoting the welfare of all children, including yours. Membership is open to any parent, grandparent, guardian, teacher, or community supporter. No one is denied membership for lack of funds!
