 What Is the Santa Rita PTA?
The PTA is a volunteer organization that provides volunteer and financial support for programs to extend the curriculum provided by the Los Altos School District. When you join the PTA you become a part of the network of parents and teachers who are working to enhance all our children's educational experience at Santa Rita to put kids first.
The Santa Rita PTA Goals for the 2008/2009 School Year are
