PTA

Midtown West Parent /Teacher Association
Midtown West has a highly successful Parent/Teacher Association that helps to facilitate many of the programs in the school. The PTA raises money, supports and helps to organize PTA functions, school events and classroom curriculum projects. All parents, guardians and teachers are automatically members of the PTA. The goals and objectives of the MTW PTA are:

 1. To take an active role in decisions concerning the development and well being of the children of the Midtown West School (P.S. 212);
2. To provide information to parents and encourage parent involvement;
3. To communicate to parents/guardians information relevant to the education and well being of their children;
4. To promote good home, school and community relations;
5. To raise funds and enter into contracts in order to carry out the educational aims of the school
