PTA Rocks!
Accessing PTA info has become easier! Everything you need is on their Cherrydale PTA page. One stop shopping with all their links for joining the PTA, volunteer sign ups, fundraising and more!
Please consider joining the Cherrydale PTA. The best part about the PTA is that you can be as involved as much or as little as you'd like or can be! We have so many volunteer opportunities throughout the year, it's easy to get involved!
To contact the PTA, email them at CherrydalePTA@gmail.com
Our Watch Dads Of Great Students are the BEST! Students are so excited when their family member(s) come to volunteer (must be cleared volunteer)!
Meet our new Top Dog David Stailey, dad to Finn in 2nd grade. I know he greatly appreciates our currently active D.O.G.S. and is looking forward to signing up more here at Cherrydale.
Contact cherrydalewatchdogs@yahoo.com for schedule of opportunities!
