The PTA Executive Board is made up of the elected officers and committee chairs. Our volunteer board works hard to support the school, the students, and the teachers,  in order to support many educational programs and foster community with our Mission Family.

Elected Officers

Every spring, we accept nominees for the following year’s PTA Officers – President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Financial Reviewer, Historian, and Financial Secretary. Look for information on next year's nominations in February. In the meantime you can get more information about these positions below.

Other Volunteer Positions

At last count, there were more than 35 official volunteer positions on the Mission PTA! We couldn’t do all the awesome things we do without the dedication of these individuals. If you would like to get more involved with PTA, please email president@missionpta.org or fill out the form over on our volunteer page. There are opportunities to fit any schedule and level of commitment. We welcome all the helping hands we can get!
