The Thornton Parent Teacher Association brings parents into contact with the schools, with other parents and with the teachers of their children.  This organization provides services and resources to the schools.  Through its meetings, PTA acquaints parents with the schools’ programs.  Through its program of service, every parent may contribute to the education and welfare of the boys and girls in Thornton.  Additional details on PTA programs are elaborated upon in the annual PTA calendar and announcements that are distributed to the children throughout the year.
