Why become a DES PTA member? 

• Get Informed. There is no better way to know what is happening at school.     

• Speak Up. PTA can be a way for you to more effectively suggest change at your child's school.     

• Support. Your support through your membership dues helps further programs at our school.     

• Be a Role Model. By becoming a PTA member, you'll be demonstrating to your child the importance you place on education.     

• Strength in Numbers. Membership in the DES PTA gives you automatic membership in the Montgomery County Council of PTAs, Freestate PTA (the PTA for the state of MD), and also the National PTA!
