About Us
Building Community. Supporting Students.
The Van Sciver PTA is run by a dedicated group of volunteers. Our purpose is to enhance the learning environment by fostering collaboration between parents and teachers to support every child’s success and well-being. We work to build a strong sense of community, support the school through fundraising and volunteer efforts, and improve communication between home and school.
If you’re interested in helping or getting involved, we’d love to hear from you!
Our Current Board.
We currently do not have a PTA President. In the interim, Jackie Reeves and Stephanie Jennetta will share the responsibilities of the President until the position is filled.
