Who is the PTA and what do they do?

The Waverly PTA has 3 main objectives: Advocacy, Communication, and Enrichment. We advocate for the students of Waverly, as well as those in the entire district. We work with the principal, the school board, and the district office to ensure our students are protected and provided for. We act as a liason between families, staff, and the district office. We are your first point of contact when you have questions or concerns. Through our Cultural Arts and Ways & Means Committees, we provide Enrichment activities and programs for the entire school.
