The PTA Email List

Scroll to the bottom of this page to sign up for the listserv. You do not need to be a formal member to be on the emails. The PTA uses this as our primary tool for communicating with the school community, including our newsletters. 

Note: the listserv is *NOT* set up as a distribution list, which means anybody who is on the listserv can reach the entire listserv by sending an email to powepta@googlegroups.com. The PTA listserv has ~350-400 email addresses on it at any given time, so be mindful that your email will go to all of those people. 

The PTA @ Facebook

This is a great place to ask questions and get quick responses. Each year, the FB group is more or less active - depending on how much you use it! Feel free to post to the community. Here's the link. It is a private group, so we'll ask you to provide a little information about your Powe connection in order to approve your membership request. 

Padres de Powe @ WhatsApp

Powe families maintain this Spanish-language WhatsApp group for Latino and Hispanic families. Ms. Diaz, the school’s Spanish interpreter, is also a part of the group. Click here to join.
