Become a PTA Member

Join R.D. White PTA!

All families are encouraged to become PTA members. By joining PTA, you are adding your voice to advocacy efforts on behalf of all children, helping your local PTA, and sending a strong message that you support children and families. Research has proven that students achieve higher grades, have better attendance, and more consistently complete homework when parents are involved. And, joining PTA is a great way to get involved and to meet other active parents! 

Becoming a member is easy! Simply click on this link to sign up online.
