Our PTA
💙 Who We Are
The Silver Lake Elementary PTA is a passionate and collaborative group of parents, caregivers, educators, and community members dedicated to enriching every child’s experience at Silver Lake. We believe that by working together, we can create an inclusive, inspiring, and supportive environment for all students to thrive—academically, socially, and emotionally.
Our PTA is powered by a committed team of volunteers who bring their time, talents, and ideas to the table. From fundraising and advocacy to wellness, diversity, and event planning, every role plays a vital part in shaping the vibrant school community our children love.
