Get Involved, Join Us!
 Join the Ravensworth PTA (which includes Virginia and national membership).  Return the membership envelope attached to the membership invitation you'll receive the first full week of school.  There are committee positions available where you can be instrumental in the future of Ravensworth and your child's education.

Attend General Membership Meetings and monthly Board Meetings to keep informed of what's happening -- see the list of events in the PTA Newsletter.  PTA meetings are held the first Tuesday of every month at 7:00pm in the Ravensworth Library.  The first General Membership Meeting is held during Back-to-School nights.
   
Checking the website is an excellent way to check school closings, featured student's work at each grade level, PTA info., etc.
  • Be a Room Parent (coordinated by PTA) or class activity volunteer. Coordinate with other volunteers on:
    • Your child's class parties
    • Your child's class field trips
    • Your child's class special event(s)
  • Be a Volunteer -- return the Volunteer Sign-up Form in the Welcome Packet. If you need more information, call one of the PTA Board Members.  Additional opportunities are:
  • Join a PTA committee or project
  • Help with class art and music programs
  • Assist teachers in the classroom or from your home
  • Assist on specific event days throughout the year
  • Assist in the Clinic, Library, etc.
Work on Focused Committees -- committees such as Yearbook, GRACE Art, Market Day, Ice Cream Social, Building and Grounds, and Cultural Arts.  These committees work on specific projects and are focused either for short, intense periods of need, or consistent help over a period of time, but the level of commitment is low.
