Beyond the Dollar

The true value of the PTA goes beyond the money we raise. Volunteers spend countless hours supporting our teachers and students as PTA leaders, room parents, cafeteria help, and event organizers. They see to it that the best CBCS traditions continue, like delivering dinner to teachers during Parent Teacher Conferences and lining up the latest games and activities to make After Prom unforgettable.
