Parent Teacher Fellowship

The PTF, as an auxiliary organization, is committed to support and uphold the mission and vision of GFA by fostering a positive relationship between the staff, School Board and families.

Every parent, teacher, and staff member is a part of the GFA Parent-Teacher Fellowship (PTF).  The Fellowship was formed to build a strong and supportive base of parents who want to work together with teachers, students, administrators, staff, and school board members for the academic, physical, spiritual, and social growth of our children.

Meetings

The PTF meets at 7:00 p.m. on the first Monday of each month in the school dining hall (unless otherwise noted). Meeting dates will be posted on the school web calendar. Please feel very welcomed to attend and share your thoughts and ideas.

Meeting minutes will be posted here to keep you informed of our activities. 

Parent Involvement

On your 2009-2010 tuition invoice, you will notice the Parent Involvement Fee. This is the fee you will pay should you choose not to be involved in any school service projects. In lieu of paying this fee, each family has the option of contributing 28 hours of service to GFA. You have until the end of May 2010 to fulfill this obligation and not pay the fee.

To submit your name for projects, print the Volunteer Information Form and fill it out. Completed forms should be put in the PTF Box in school office. You will be contacted when help is needed. Please keep in mind that this list is not all inclusive and if you have suggestions for other areas you could help, please contact the school office.

When you perform volunteer work for the school, fill out a Volunteer Service Form and put it in the PTF box in the school office.  Your hours will be tallied and the bookkeeper will be notified when you have served 28 hours.

To suggest projects to be completed by the PTF, print the PTF Volunteer Projects form and fill it out. Completed forms should be put in the PTF Box in the school office.
