Our Parent Group is a partnership among parents, teachers, and staff, for the purpose of enriching and enhancing the experience of our children at Amana.
Throughout the year, we host events and activities that focus on building community, increasing school spirit, and encouraging parental contribution to student learning.
Major events are World Day (formerly called International Festival); Grandparents Day in the fall, and the Scholastic Book Fair in the spring. Events are published on the school calendar and announced in the Eagle Weekly Updates.
Amana’s Parent Group is a volunteer-run organization. We could not succeed without the dedicated support of Amana PTO and our families! If you are interested in getting involved, send an email to amanaparents2@gmail.com.
Our children soar when we work together!
