The mission of the Sowers PTSA is to make every child’s potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children. Volunteering plays a crucial role in achieving this mission by providing the support and resources needed to create a connected and enriched educational environment. When you volunteer, you directly contribute to the success of various programs, events, and initiatives that benefit students, teachers, and the school community as a whole.
