Get Involved at Turtle Lake

There are many ways to be involved at Turtle Lake. Through volunteering, attending meetings, making donations, or becoming a PTA member you can make a difference in your child's grade school experience. 

Turtle Lake is fortunate to have an active PTA that provides enrichment to all students and staff. While our fundraising has increased in recent years, we have many volunteer roles left unfilled resulting in a small amount of parents giving a lot of their time. Please consider becoming involved, even the smallest time commitment can help!

Volunteer

There are numerous volunteer opportunities throughout the school year. From a shift or two at a book fair to helping plan the Carnival, there is a volunteer job for everyone. Fill out our Volunteer Form for non-event based needs or see the active sign ups below.

All volunteers at Turtle Lake need to have a current background check on file with the school. See below for those forms.

Donate

We have a few fundraisers throughout the year and direct donations are always welcome. Money raised goes back to the school in the form of classroom enrichment, events, socials, special projects, and necessary equipment for teachers. In spring of 2024, the PTA approved the funding for rollerblades and associated safety equipment for all grade use in gym class. Calls for donations are also made for the 5th Grade Celebration and prizes for the Read-a-Thon top readers and earners.

 Attend a Meeting

There are several meetings throughout the year. Meetings have updates from the district, administration, grade levels, and specialists; fundraising and budget updates; and voting on funding requests or other matters. Membership is not required to attend and participate in discussions, but only members can vote. All meeting dates and times for the current school year are listed in the calendar.

For notes from prior meetings, please check out the Our PTA page.
