You’ve Got Questions. We’ve Got Answers

HOW CAN I VOLUNTEER?

Brooks Museums Magnet Elementary School PTA uses Givebacks to manage all volunteer opportunities.

Your service as a volunteer not only helps to achieve our goals, it also sets an example of service for others to follow.  When your children see you involved at the school, it communicates to them that school, and in a larger sense, their education, are important to you.

YOU MUST BE A WCPSS-APPROVED VOLUNTEER TO HELP IN ANY WCPSS SCHOOL.
The WCPSS volunteer approval process runs from July 1 – October 31 each year.  You must complete either a new volunteer application OR update your approval each year on a WCPSS computer at school during school hours.  

HOW DO I RECEIVE UPDATES?

Stay up to date with the PTA through the Brooks PTA Givebacks.  Please visit our Givebacks Join Site to create/update your account.  By signing up, you will receive the PTA weekly newsletter, which is your best way to find out what all is going on in and around Brooks!
