Who We Are

DFES PTA is a partnership of caregivers and educators supporting our students. As part of the California PTA, we are a member of the largest child advocacy organization in California. We are parents, grandparents, foster parents, aunts, uncles, caregivers, and friends working alongside our teachers, principal, and staff to create a joyful and equitable learning environment for each and every student. 

We would love you to join us! For more information about our PTA Community, click here.

The general membership elects the DFES PTA leadership annually. A nominating committee is convened to identify candidates and the slate is then presented for election by the membership at the end of the prior school year for the following year.
