A Message from the PTO:
On behalf of the PTO, we would like to welcome you to University Academy. The UA PTO members and volunteers work together to support and enrich our school and the educational experience of all our students. We support school staff, help promote a strong sense of community, and assist in efforts to solve school needs through volunteering and funding.
We work together for a common goal. That goal, simply stated, is creating a better school and a better educational experience for our children. We strive to create an atmosphere where teachers, administrators, and support staff can do their best work – and so can our children. There is so much more that can be done and we need your help.
Become a Volunteer…Why YOU should get involved!
This is where you can come in! We need your help, and so do your children. Get involved TODAY!
Won't you join us? Becoming active is really easy - and it really makes a difference!
