Attention Families Headed to Turtle Lake Next Fall
We have openings in our Turtle Lake PTA Executive Board. Please check them out and see if they may be a good fit for you. The open board positions have a very light time commitment that lasts throughout the school year for the next 2 years (2025-2027.) Board members are expected to participate in executive board meetings (virtual, about one per month for about an hour) and volunteer at various PTA events as needed/available including back-to-school nights, socials, and communication nights. If interested, please email TurtleLakePTA@gmail.com.
