HOW YOUR PTA DONATION SUPPORTS OUR KIDS & SCHOOL
PTA funding makes possible an amazing array of programs for our kids, from Art and Garden Science programs, Kinder music, assemblies (such as the Oakland Ballet), field trips, and our socio-emotional Peace Keeper program.
The Edison PTA also pays for all school supplies and classroom basics, ensuring that all of our students have equal access to school supplies, field trips, and enrichment programs.
