Palomar Council PTA serves 36 local PTA Units in the Poway Unified School District. We support the local units, provide scholarships, coordinate Adopt a Family, run Reflections Program, sponsor a College Fair and generally support district wide activities. We strive to train our PTAs in all aspects of the organization.
Monthly Council Board Meetings are held the 1st Tuesday of each month at 7pm at the
PUSD District Office. All Unit Presidents or your unit representative are encouraged
to attend. We look forward to seeing you. Click on the Calendar link above for details.
The Mt. Carmel High School PTSA is proud to announce our
Spring MC Media Sale.
We are asking for donations of gently used media (books, books on tape/CD, music CDs, DVDs, VHS, etc.) by the surrounding community to then sell at low prices back to the community March 21 thru 23 (donations accepted through March 19th). All proceeds raised will benefit the Library at the Mount. Click here for details.
Parent Awareness Forums
How to Protect Our Kids from the Dangers of Synthetic Drugs
Three forums have been scheduled for parents to learn about the dangers of synthetic
drug use. Student Support Services Department, Safety Wellness Advocacy Community
Coalition (SWACC), PTSAs, law enforcement and other community agencies have partnered
to make this information available (alcohol abuse, binge drinking, marijuana and
other drugs). Come learn about the new and dangerous synthetic drugs: Bath Salts,
Spice, and K2 that are available to your students in our own communities.
