No commitment or expectations required, you’re just simply showing your support for our great students, school, parents, and staff. The PTA needs to start printing up the directories of the PTA members, so the last day to sign up is Friday, October 18th.

Sign up here.

If you wish to use a check, please send a piece of paper that includes the name of your child and his/her teacher along with a check. Please send it with your child in an envelope marked “CES PTA membership”.

Individual – $15 – for one ADULT member of your household
Dual – $25 – for two ADULT members of your household

When you join, please also consider making a COUGAR PATRON DONATION. 100% of your donation will be used to fund programs at our school! Clarksville E.S. PTA is a 501(c)(3) corporation, donations are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. Thank you for your support!

The Cougar Patron program is a fundraising drive designed to help defray the cost of the many activities and programs sponsored and run by the Clarksville Elementary School (CES) PTA.

We have heard from many families that they prefer writing one check to support their children instead of selling candles, gift wrap, cookies, etc. In fact, this program was so successful last year that we are eliminating all other fundraising.

In addition to your membership, we are asking families for a minimum donation of $50 per child (beyond the membership dues) to support our kids and maintain our current level of programming. The best part is 100% of your money stays at CES, your donation is tax-deductible and you don’t have to sell anything!

The money raised supports many important programs at CES including:

Back to School Welcome Ice Cream Social
Family Fun Run
International Night
Pizza Bingo
Spring Fling
Many More…
