How to Join the PTA
You can join the GUFS PTA in three ways:
Student Directory!
If you wish to be included in the GUFS' Directory please complete this online form.
Completion of the directory form will allow you to be listed in and receive a copy of our directory. If you have ever scratched your head wondering where to get addresses for your Holiday cards or party invitations...this is for you. Completing the directory information will also enable you to receive communication from the PTA about events and activities. THAT SAID, if you would like to receive communication but do NOT wish to be listed in the directory, that's an option too. Please complete the form above, and opt out of being printed in the directory when you see that option.
For any questions about PTA membership or the directory please email the Secretary.
Why are there PTA dues?
A portion of these dues go to national PTA and state PTA, which provide us with insurance coverage for activities, administrative support and national and state lobbying to improve education. Additional funds support programs at the Garrison School.
Below are some of the programs that are funded by the PTA:
Membership entitles you to attend PTA meetings, contribute to setting the agenda for the PTA, vote on PTA issues and serve on both elected and appointed boards.
Who should join?
Membership is individual, so we strongly encourage both parents to join. We invite all GUFS teachers, administrators, staff, and Board of Education members to join. We invite community members to join as well. GUFS is the heart of the hamlet of Garrison!
- You can sign up online at our memberhub site located here. This secure site is our preferred way to manage memberships and helps to keep your data secure and accurate.
- IF YOU HAVE A STUDENT AT GUFS, and do not wish to complete the online process above, you can fill out this attached form and send it in to the school via backpack mail along with a check for dues made payable to "GUFS PTA" OR
