2007-2008 PTA Budget

The PTA engages in several fundraising activities throughout the year. Although the annual Auction raises the most money, all of the fundraising activities are critical to paying for the many programs the PTA undertakes. In total, fundraising (auction, garage sale, gift wrap, script, interest we earn, misc. contributions, movie night, etc.) will provide about $156,000.

During the budget process each spring, the funds are allocated to various projects and programs. Here is how we anticipate that these funds will be spent this school year:

music, art and after-school programs, scholarships, etc., $41,000;

classroom fieldtrips and school staff support, $25,000;

library improvements, carpet, bike racks, misc. equipment, $45,000;

garden, playground and field improvements and maintenance, $19,000;

community building programs (Black history, climbing wall, etc), $5,000;

PTA administration and overhead, $ 3,000;

reserves for new programs and next year, $18,000.

Total budget: $156,000
