Welcome families to the start of another great school year! My name is Megan Wright, and I am the new president of the Parent Teacher Association (PTA) at Taylor Elementary. This will be my family’s third year at Taylor after moving here from Oregon, and our daughter will be in third grade. Before moving here, I was a school counselor for 12 years. Now I get to teach at the University of North Texas and be involved as a parent at Taylor.
This year I look forward to continuing the strong work the PTA has been doing to increase care for our students, staff, and families. We promote connections within our community to advocate for the well-being of our students through educational programming and supporting staff. In order to do this well, the PTA relies on you, the parents, to contribute your time, talents, and energy. My parents were heavily involved in the PTA when I was a child, so I grew up knowing the benefits of having parents involved in my school experience.
Being a member of the PTA allows you to know more about what is happening throughout the year. You may know me from the book fair last year; serving as co-chair was a rewarding experience. I was able to be on campus more often, so I met teachers and staff and interacted with students. They love having parents around! Our school values the diversity of our families and welcomes all the cultures and backgrounds you bring: Taylor is better because of you! Volunteering at fundraising or programming events or in a more specific role will benefit you and our students.
Please consider joining me as a member of the PTA https://taylorelementarypta.membershiptoolkit.com/membership.
We are stronger together,
Megan Wright
Taylor Elementary PTA President 2022-2023
