Description

The mission of McGaugh Elementary PTA is to positively impact the lives of all children and families through representation, empowerment, and support with skills in advocacy, leadership, community, connection, and communication. McGaugh PTA fundraises to be able to enhance students’ education by providing supplemental programs and events such as: music and art education, field trips, STEM, Astronomy, and Math nights, Jester book dedication readings to enhance our library, International Culture Club to promote cultural learning and experiences, classroom enhancements and so much more. In addition, we coordinate family friendly events that build community as well as enhance students' education and learning experiences. The Carnival is the most important fundraising event McGaugh Elementary PTA coordinates during the school year to fund our PTA's annual budget. McGaugh PTA works tirelessly to put together this event ourselves (100% volunteer) so that we can maximize our profit which goes directly to fund the many different programs and events as mentioned above.

The McGaugh Carnival is McGaugh PTA’s biggest community event of the school year and will be attended by over 500 individuals. It provides an opportunity for families and the community to join together for an afternoon of games, activities, food, music, and just plain fun at minimal cost. It also serves as a fundraiser for McGaugh PTA to be able to provide the above mentioned programs and events that enrich students’ education. The silent auction is comprised of donated items and all proceeds go towards the previously mentioned programs and events. We are kindly requesting an In-Kind donation by October 16th, 2023, that we would be able to have available at our Silent Auction for bidding. We plan to recognize our sponsors by including their information in our event newsletter, our school newsletters, on our social media channels, on our website, and on a banner hung at the school.

Your support is truly appreciated and really makes a difference in our ability to provide enrichment and educational opportunities for our students. McGaugh Elementary PTA is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Our tax ID number is 95-6207369
