Dear Kerr Families and Teachers, 

Welcome back Kerr Comets!! 

Kerr PTA is focused on working together with parents, teachers, and staff to provide various educational Programs, Family Events, Outreach, School and Faculty support, and so much more. We truly believe that working together as a school community, is better for all of us!

We have EXCITING things planned this year, but we can't do it without YOU! The activities, events, and educational support we are able to provide to the school relies on the support of our families through an annual PTA membership. A Kerr PTA membership not only helps to fund our goals, but also gives families a voice to advocate for children at our membership meetings.  

Kerr PTA also relies on the generous support from families and the community through donations, community sponsors and volunteers!  Volunteering at Kerr is an engaging and rewarding experience that makes a huge impact for our students and community. For more information, please visit our Volunteers page.  

Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with our updated website to keep up to date with important information regarding our school and PTA. Be sure to check out the PTA section of the school's bi-weekly newsletter.

Whether you are a new family to Kerr or one that has been part of our community for many years - We can't wait to spend the year with you! 

All the best!
