Message From the Co-Presidents
Did you know that when your child enrolls at P.S. 40, your family automatically becomes part of the school's Parent Teacher Association (PTA)?

The PTA is an all-volunteer parent group that raises money to support improvements in our school. Equally important, we sponsor school-wide events to build community and have fun together.

We hope that you will be involved with us this year, in whatever way works best for you and your family. To find our more about our activities, please join us for our first PTA Meeting and Hospitality Night scheduled for Wednesday, September 21 at 6:30pm in the PS 40 Auditorium. For PS 40 students we provide FREE babysitting.

Some of our fundraisers:
Direct Appeal
Annual Benefit Auction
KidsArt
Innisbrook Candy/Wrapping Paper Sale
Fall and Spring Scholastic Book Fairs

Some of our community events:
Halloween Fright Night Party
Sports Night
Winter and Spring Concerts
Bake Sales
Family Potluck Dinners

Last year our PTA raised over $300,000, which went to support these programs, as well as many others:

Chess instruction for all students K-5
Arts Residencies for grades K-5
Teaching Assistants
Visiting Author Series
Math, reading, and literacy consultants for all teachers
Purchase, upgrade and maintenance of band instruments
Classroom equipment and supplies
