Did You Know?
The Glenhope PTA Membership is more than just a membership to our local PTA. By purchasing a membership at our school, you are also a member of the Texas and National PTA. This membership earns you discounts at many national retailers.
What role does Glenhope PTA play in our school?
The Glenhope PTA is responsible for a lot more than you may think. The PTA sponsors Fall Festival, the Holiday Workshop, the Boo Hoo/ Yahoo Breakfast, the Winter Social, Arts in Reflections, Gator Tales, Gator Games and numerous childrens programs per year.
The PTA also uses funds raised to provide supplemental teaching tools and supplies to our teachers. In the past we have helped purchase a new computer lab for the school, literacy books for the literacy library, supplies for the music program and nurse, equipment for the playground and PE, technological aids for teaching in the classroom and much more. This could not be possible without help from its membership! You!
