Volunteer
The PTA is planning for the 2023-2024 school year and recruiting PTA volunteers for specific roles and for general involvement as we move towards reconnecting as a school community.
Complete a quick survey here to tell us how you would like to get involved.
We would love to have YOU join us next year as we work together to bring MORE opportunity, fun, and community to the Ephesus family.
About Ephesus Elementary PTA Volunteering
The EES PTA cannot do the critical work to support our school community without our volunteers. There are several opportunities with various commitment levels open. If you have a different idea, please note it below.
It's also OK if you don't have a specific interest but want to be available to help! We will reach out if we have a volunteer need and if it is the right fit for you, we cannot wait to have you join us!
Welcome Committee
Staff Appreciation
Fundraising
