What is PTSA?

PTSA stands for Parent Teacher Student Association.  The PTSA works in direct partnership with Rose Hill Elementary to provide an organized volunteer support system as well as financial resources that are not otherwise available due to severe budget constraints at the district, city, state and federal levels.  

You may be surprised to learn that public schools are not allowed to raise additional monies on their own through fundraising efforts - this is where PTSAs all over the district (and the nation) step in at their local schools to help make a significant difference in our children's educational experience.  Registered as chartered, non-profit organizations through the Washington State PTA, individual PTSAs work hard to raise money and gather volunteer support to complement the efforts of our faculty and staff.  Please consider joining the Rose Hill Elementary PTSA.  You can make a difference in the life of a child!
