PTA Grant Proposals
The PTA intends to distribute $6,500 in grant awards this school year. Proposals may request funding for projects, activities, field trips, books, equipment or anything else that enhances the school experience for the ACCESS Academy community. We encourage proposals that offer school-wide opportunities to students as well as proposals that will benefit individual classrooms or grade levels. Learn more.
Recent Dine Out Fundraisers
Please keep supporting our wonderful Dine Out community partners.

TAGAC Letter to District and School Board
TAGAC (the Talented and Gifted Advisory Council) recently sent a letter to PPS District Leaders and the School Board, and has given us permission to share it with the community. The letter highlights the critical role ACCESS Academy plays in meeting the needs of TAG students, calls out the many inaccuracies and omissions in the petition to close the school, and underscores how inappropriate and harmful it is for one group of parents to target another school community, especially in the absence of any public response or pushback from district leadership.

Our PTA is a non profit, volunteer organization made up of parents, teachers, administrators and community members striving to support our school community.
The mission of the PTA “is to make every child’s potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities to advocate for all children.” The ACCESS PTA’s goal is to provide a vibrant and positive learning environment and support the school, students, staff, and caregivers. We rely on our volunteers to engage the community, to fundraise, and to help provide the support for students to excel.
