Hello Carroll Families!

On behalf of the 2022-23 Carroll PTA Board, WELCOME to the Carroll Elementary PTA! We are super excited about the upcoming school year and have been working hard over the summer to plan many awesome events for the students, teachers, and staff this school year!

Carroll PTA is a non-profit 501c3 organization that advocates for ALL children in our community. 100% of our Carroll PTA donations go directly to providing programs on campus to enhance education, provide educational resources, and host on-campus events to bring our families together for community engagement.

We are striving for 100% membership! To achieve this goal. We need one member for every student at Carroll. This is so important, not only for our school, but also at the State level when it comes to fighting for better school funding and our “safer school” initiative. With your contribution, your child’s voice is heard. Texas PTA’s motto “EVERYONE can Back the Future” perfectly describes our mission here at Carroll.

I am honored and humbled to serve as your PTA President this year. This is my 11th year at Carroll Elementary and each year I am amazed at how many fantastic families join our campus! All of our programs and activities could NOT happen without exceptional volunteers that love our school so much. I am thrilled to work with 20 awesome women and men on our PTA Board that are excited to bring the PTA to life at Carroll for the 2022-23 school year!

Learning is taking us places and Carroll PTA is excited for the adventure! Join PTA today!

Many thanks,
Emily French
Carroll PTA President

The Carroll Elementary PTA supports our Carroll students, teachers and parents. We promote, manage, sponsor, and organize countless programs for students and families. This is only possible through your membership, donations, and participation. All family members are encouraged to join, even grandparents!

PTA is the oldest and largest child advocacy association in America. Today’s PTA is comprised of more than 4 million parents, teachers, grandparents, caregivers, foster parents and other caring adults who share a commitment to improving the education, health, and safety of all children. We speak with one voice for every child.

Today, the issues that affect our children extend beyond their individual schools. The PTA’s nationwide network provides parents with the forum and tools to collectively influence the decisions that affect children not only at their schools, but also throughout their districts, within their states, and across the nation. This mission is unique to PTA.

Many of the benefits our children receive today, such as universal kindergarten, the National School Lunch Program, and a juvenile justice system, were accomplished as a result of the PTA mission.

With PTA, families also have access to important benefits, including:

• Dozens of national programs, experts, and turnkey resources
• Regular updates and advice in the form of e-newsletters, PTA.org, Our Children magazine, and a robust Local PTA Leader Kit of resources
• Leadership development through webinars and e-learning courses
• Millions of dollars in grants to help build PTA capacity and skills
• Prestigious national awards
• Cost savings from national retailers and other PTA partners
• Invitations to PTA conventions as well as our conferences for emerging minority leaders, male mentors, and advocates
• Support services and staff to help establish and manage your PTA
