YOUR PTA

Every parent/Guardian of a child who attends PS 154 is a member of the PTA

The PTA of P.S. 154 Brooklyn is a collaboration of parents, teachers, administrators, and support staff within our school community. The PTA serves an important fundraising, communications, and at times, problem-solving role for our school. It organizes and supports PTA-funded programs that benefit our students, and a number of events throughout the year to raise funds and build community.

In 2024–2025, our PTA will spend $912 per child to support learning at PS 154

We ask that each family gives what they can toward this amount, large or small. Our goal is 100% participation! Learn more about how you can donate monetarily and by volunteering.
