LCHS 7/8 PTA

LCHS 7/8 PTA is a 501c (3) tax exempt incorporated organization made up of hard-working parents & teachers who pool their talents to provide practical support for our school. It is one of five PTA units in the La Canada PTA Council. La Canada is part of First District PTA, which is one of several districts in the California State PTA and ultimately, the National PTA. The mission of PTA is to positively impact the lives of children and families with the goal to promote, build and expand family engagement in the education process and to bring into closer relation the home and the school that parents and teachers may cooperate intelligently in the education of children and youth.

In order to facilitate the mission and goals of PTA at our school, we engage in several fundraising activities. The fundraising proceeds are used for student enrichment, classroom and campus supplies and equipment, support for the library (IRC), extra-curricular activities, PTA operations, membership events, and programs such as Reflections, Stand Up 7/8 Week, Red Ribbon Week, Student of the Month and more.

Our fundraising is largely derived from generous donations from our school families and from the annual Home Tour, which is presented by both LCHS 7/8 PTA and the LCHS 9-12 PTSA.
