PTSA Mission Statement
The PTSA is an important part of AI duPont high school. The organization is comprised of Parents, Teachers and most importantly Students working together, side by side, to enhance our school community. The PTSA is a great way for students to become involved in and have an active voice in their school. It is also an excellent way for students to take the opportunity to:
♦ establish and exhibit leadership skills;
♦ work on a variety of projects;
♦ earn volunteer hours; and
♦ have another activity to include on their college application or resume.
The PTSA is an “all inclusive organization.” All are welcome and encouraged to join!
