The Book Fair helps raise money to purchase books for our school library. Volunteers are needed to help with unpack and pack up the Fair, helping shoppers locate products, serving as a cashier, bagger or crowd control.

All auction proceeds benefit Portola Springs Elementary PTA and help fund school and classroom needs such as library books, technology, field trips, and reimbursement of teachers’ out-of-pocket expenses.

Jogathon is our annual PTA spring fundraiser in the form of a running/walking marathon. The purpose of this activity, other than supporting our school, is to treat our children to a healthy group activity full of fun. This committee organizes and implements the event that fosters community spirit, unity, and fun. Committee is responsible for gathering volunteers, concessions, communication of event, pledge forms, etc...

The Portola Springs PTA asks all parents for a once-a-year donation to support the education of our children. Your donation is needed more than ever this year to help provide resources that enrich our children’s education. Please consider making a generous contribution to the PTA annual pledge drive. We need to work together to fill the holes left by state budget cuts to ensure that our children have a quality education.

Our pledge drive goal is to have all families at Portola Springs participate. This is our primary fundraiser for the school year. By having all families participate, it allows us to limit additional fundraising activities and requests throughout the remainder of the school year. Our suggested pledge is $100 per child. All contributions are tax deductible and confidential. ANY contribution amount makes a difference!
