Why should I join Turtle Rock Elementary Parent-Teacher Association (PTA)?
Becoming a PTA member makes a positive impact for your child(ren) as well as all students at Turtle Rock Elementary. PTA Members are stay connected with our school, other parents, and the local community and can vote on key items like budgets, school activities, and board member elections at PTA General Assembly meetings. PTA is also an advocacy group on a national level. Every person that joins our PTA is also a part of California PTA and National PTA.
Why should I donate to Turtle Rock Elementary PTA in addition to joining the PTA?
Irvine Unified School District (IUSD) is one of the highest performing school districts in California and nationwide, but the district has significant gaps in both federal and state per student funding due to the state's Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). Turtle Rock Elementary School PTA works to fill these funding gaps by fundraising and organizing supplemental student enrichment activities and programs. Donations, grants, and community sponsorships are critical to sustain the high-quality education and enrichment opportunities for Turtle Rock Elementary students. To learn how PTA donations are used, refer to the Missions and Goals page.
Are donations tax deductible?
Turtle Rock Elementary PTA is a registered 501(c)(3) organization and your donation may be tax deductible. Please contact your tax advisor for more information. Turtle Rock Elementary PTA Tax ID is 23-7160349.
Do I need to join the PTA every year or if I transfer schools during the current year?
PTA memberships are only valid for the current school year and are specific to each school. If you joined the PTA in prior years or joined at a different school during the current school year (i.e. school transfer), please consider joining again.
Does my PTA membership cover just me or everyone in my family?
The $25 PTA membership fee is for one adult and is assigned to the account owner. Although not required, we encourage each adult in your family to join the PTA and purchase their own membership (i.e. one membership for parent 1 and a second membership for parent 2/adult family member).
I have multiple children at Turtle Rock Elementary. Do I need to purchase multiple PTA memberships (one for each child) so that they are all counted in their class competitions?
No, when you purchase one PTA membership, all the children in your family get credit for the PTA membership drive class competitions. Additionally, each child in your family will receive the same prizes with one PTA membership. Please make sure children's information is updated in your account (grade and teacher name).
When will my child receive the membership prizes?
All children in your family will receive the same prizes for one PTA membership. Prizes will be delivered to your child's classroom and will be distributed throughout the Fall Pledge Drive.
Who can I contact with additional questions?
Questions about PTA Membership and Fall Pledge Drive can be directed to membershipvp@turtlerockpta.org. General questions about the PTA can be directed to the PTA President (president@turtlerockpta.org) or any of our other board members.
