    Welcome to Fred A. Toomer Elementary School's PTA page! The teachers, administration, students, and families at Toomer all work together to make our school a great place for our students to learn and thrive. We are proud of our school and our community spirit and we want to help all families feel a part of the school community and be better able to support their child’s learning at home. 

    Our goal as a PTA is to provide a space for Toomer parents from all three of the school’s feeder neighborhoods to get to know each other, build meaningful relationships with each other, offer support to each other, and learn from each other how to best advocate for all Toomer students. 

    Additionally, we align our efforts with the priorities identified by school leadership to improve outcomes for students and strengthen the entire school community.

    These are our current projects and initiatives:

    • Organize and host Screen on the Green (Fall), a Family Dance (Spring), and Parent Coffees (Fall & Spring)
    • Recruit volunteers to support school and PTA events as well as help out in classrooms
    • Provide dinner at all family engagement nights
    • Host Let’s Talk about Toomer and King panels for prospective parents to hear more about their neighborhood schools
    • Run an online Spirit Store
    • Organize monthly Dine Outs at neighborhood restaurants 
    • Maintain a Uniform closet for use by all Toomer families
    • Organize and fund teacher appreciation efforts
    • Send weekly announcements & monthly newsletters
    • Engage with the community on social media
    • Create a digital parent resource library
    • Help parents navigate questions and/or concerns
    • Raise money to support the school outside its budgeted expenses
