What does Shayne PTA do?

Shayne PTA is committed to fostering a strong connection between parents, teachers, and the school community. We do this in multiple ways, such as fundraising, community building, volunteer support, advocacy, educational enrichment, ongoing communication and more! Take a look below at just a glimpse of what Shayne PTA is up to!

  • School Beautification

    Our PTA hosts “Make Shayne Shine” days each semester where families are encouraged to support school beautification!

  • Classroom Upgrades

    Thanks to our community’s fundraising efforts, the PTA was able to fully outfit the school’s Collaboratory room with chairs desks, tables, pillows, bulletin boards, and a sofa. Rooms like this are multi-use and serve as an anchor in our school! We are so proud to have provided this space the materials it needed to be a place where teachers and students feel comfortable to thrive!

  • Advocacy

    Our PTA advocacy efforts helped MNPS turn what was previously a rocky, dirt covered field into a fresh surface for soccer and general play. Our kids deserve a place to learn AND play!

  • Advocacy

    Thanks to the advocacy efforts of the PTA and the support of MNPS, we were able to spruce up our beloved playground with new mulch, new swing mats, new rubber surfaces and replaced panels.

  • Staff Appreciation

    Our PTA is proud to host regular staff appreciation luncheons where we are able to remind our staff how thankful we are for all they do!

  • Educational Enrichment

    Our PTA volunteers time to secure, organize, and distribute curriculum to our classrooms.

  • Communication

    Our team has purchased clothing racks and regularly organizes lost or displaced items so that all students can easily find and retrieve items left behind at school! Be on the lookout when you visit the school to see if your Shayne Star has a missing item to claim!

  • Educational Experiences

    The PTA loves hosting events and experiences for our community, like this Family Cultural Night! The Shayne community was invited to travel through the world via interactive activities, performances, and amazing food!

  • Fundraising

    Our PTA designs and executes fundraising efforts for our school and rallies our community around these campaigns! We hope our fundraissing efforts highlight how much we value, appreciate and believe in the Shayne students, staff, and community. Every penny collected is used to make our school SHINE!
