Everyone belongs! At Ross, every family, every teacher, and every staff member is a valued member of the Ross PTA. Instead of an annual membership drive, every fall we invite all members of our community to Fall for Ross.

We encourage families to consider a financial donation of $50/month ($600 annually) to help the PTA maintain its strong programs and investments in school operating costs. We understand this isn’t possible for every family. Please give as you’re able. Small or large, every donation is important and contributes to improving the learning environment for every student at Ross.

What does the Ross PTA Do?

Funds Ross's operating expenses, permitting the school to use its DCPS funding on additional teachers and staff;
Supports Ross teachers and staff with funding for everything from library books to field trips to professional training; and
Hosts events to build and strengthen the Ross community.

Our engaged school community is an essential part of what makes the Ross environment such a welcoming, supportive place for our children to learn and grow.

Our goal is to raise $50,000 this fall and to connect with every Ross family. Please join us!

And, the class with the highest percentage of participation will win an extra recess and popsicle party!

We will periodically update the family participation table below with each family who donates, regardless of the amount, so feel free to revisit this page and see how your class(es) are doing. Please be sure to report your child's name and class with the donation so that participation is counted accurately. Families with more than one child enrolled at Ross should select multiple grades and list each child's name.
