We are a 501(c)3 organization that works to:

● Improve communication between teachers, staff, students, families and community.

● Provide supplemental funding for tech upgrades, school supplies, student enrichment.

● Organize volunteer support for tutoring and school activities.

Recent progress toward these goals has included:

● Securing a $75,000 grant from Google © to establish the creation of PPS’s first Maker Space.

● Providing scholarships for Obama students to attend enrichment workshops.

● Coordinating the donation/purchase of equipment and supplies.

● Funding and facilitating activities for school beautification.

● Awarding grants to Obama Academy teachers to provide supplemental classroom materials.

● Organizing an International Festival that celebrates the diversity of the Obama community.

We have even bigger plans for this school year, but we need you to make them happen. Please:

● Attend our monthly meetings, first one will be on 9/25, Tuesday at 6:30pm, in the library.

● Like us on Facebook at Pittsburgh Obama 6-12 PTSA (facebook.com/pghobamaptsa).

● Volunteer your time to ensure that your child’s school can provide the best possible education!

We look forward to a great year for all our kids,

PTSA Executive Board

Clipping Box Tops is an easy way for you to help our school buy what it needs. Each Box Tops is worth 10¢ and they quickly add up to real cash for our school. Last school year, we earned $453.00 in cash!  This year we’d like to make $1000 – and we can with your help.  Just look for pink Box Tops on products, clip them, and send them to school. Please have your child turn them into the office or bring them to a PTSA meeting, or drop them off in the main office.
