What We Do
The PS6 PTA exists to strengthen our school community alongside the PS6 administration. This includes organizing community-building events such as the annual Spring Fair, Read-A-Thon, Fun Run, and Field Day – along with many school-wide parent social events. We also play a critical role in driving fundraising efforts through our Annual Fund.

PTA Executive BoardOfficers of the PTA are elected by membership annually; there are many opportunities to get involved so you can gain a deeper understanding of what’s happening at school and play a role in giving our students the best educational experience possible. It’s also a great way to meet friends and have a voice in decisions about school programs and policies.
