Meet Your 2025-2026 PTA Board

The Taawila Elementary School PTA is powered by an incredible team of dedicated parent volunteers. We are parents, guardians, and community members, just like you, who commit our time and energy to support every student, teacher, and family at our school.


From organizing beloved events like the Day of Awesomeness and funding classroom grants to running fundraisers and advocating for our school community, this team works tirelessly behind the scenes. We are all passionate about making our school a vibrant, supportive, and enriching place for our children to learn and grow.


Get to know the volunteers leading our PTA this year! We're always happy to chat, so please say hello when you see us on campus.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Stronger Together

The Táawila PTA is a place where collaboration and inclusion are not just words, but actions. Our philosophy is simple: we are stronger together. We actively work to be a community where every family belongs, every voice is welcome, and every idea is respected. By joining forces as parents, teachers, and neighbors, we create the vibrant, supportive, and enriching environment every Táawila Cub deserves.
