About PTSA

Oswalt Academy Parent, Teacher, and Student Association (PTSA), is a family that thrives from a collective effort in making every child’s potential a reality. As parents, we all support our children in their educational journey. As teachers, we guide our students to become inquirers of the world. As students, we grow our curiosity and share our voice.

Our PTSA provides information and resources that strengthen the connection between children, parents, the school, and community. In the past years, Oswalt PTSA has:

• Funded family/student events with Welcome Back & Halloween Parade treats & Family/Literacy Night.
• Supported technology in the classroom by replacing hardware as needed and purchasing new LCD projectors.
• Encouraged academic success and Oswalt’s core values by funding Monthly Award assemblies and food with the Principal for Outstanding Attendance. Special End of the Year awards, medals, Teacher Appreciation luncheon and our annual Book Fair.
• Encouraged healthy lifestyles through Red Ribbon Week.
• Encouraged school pride with Oswalt t-shirt sales and Spirit Day treats.
• Supported classroom instruction by providing monetary allocations to every classroom, funded field trips and busing and/ or assemblies for every grade level.

In other words, TOTEM fee of $1 goes directly to TOTEM, it’s not a PTSA fee. Please don't let that stop you. Every membership counts and will help our association.
