Why Join the WM PTSA?

West Mercer PTSA, Mercer Island Council 65.9.35 is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.  Our EIN/Tax ID # is 91-1145518


There is no better way to connect with other parents, hear about important decisions and changes at the school, and to provide input on how we support our children's education. Your West Mercer PTSA membership provides you voting privilege at our PTSA Membership meetings and voting representation for children's advocacy at the State and Federal Level.

WM PTSA membership can be found as part of our Back2School Parent Packet.


JOIN NOW

 

A portion of the PTSA fee goes toward the National and Washington State PTA Membership Service Fees and the remaining portion goes to cover the expense of offering an online West Mercer School Directory. Washington State PTA is the largest volunteer association dedicated to the education, health, welfare, and safety of all children in Washington state. When you join PTA, you support local, state and national efforts to improve the lives of children and their families.


In addition, PTA Members receive these benefits:

  • Access West Mercer Directory: Only paid West Mercer PTSA members will receive access to the password-protected online school directory.
  • Attend MI Parent Edge events: PTSA members receive free or reduced admission to all MI Parent Edge events. Check out this year's calendar of parenting speakers and programs at www.miparentedge.org.
  • Discounts: PTSA members receive exclusive discounts via the WA State PTA.

 

If I join, do I have to?

 

  • Go to meetings?
    No. You are welcome to attend our general meetings though.

  • Volunteer or spend a lot of time at school?
    Nope! Joining the WM PTSA is not the same as volunteering. If you choose to volunteer we would LOVE the help—but volunteering is not required.
