PS 33 PTA Membership
Every parent or guardian of a PS 33 Chelsea Prep student, as well as every teacher at PS 33 Chelsea Prep, is automatically a member of the PTA. At all General PTA meetings, every member has a right to vote.
Family involvement is critical to the success of our school. Every dollar we donate and every hour we volunteer ensures that our students can receive all of the excellent programs, resources, enrichment, and the best education that PS 33 Chelsea Prep has to offer.

The PS 33 Chelsea Prep PTA is an integral part of the PS 33 Chelsea Prep School. It engages in activities that enrich the education of our students and promote good home, school, and community relations among our students, families, teaching staff, and school administrators.
How do I join the PTA?
You already did! All parents/guardians and teachers of PS 33 Chelsea Prep students are automatically members of the PTA.How can I join the PTA Executive Board or SLT?
These positions are open to all PTA members and are elected at General PTA meetings where each PTA member can cast a vote. The executive board members are elected for each academic year during the previous May General PTA meeting. SLT members are elected on a 2-year rotating basis, also during General PTA meetings.
Do I have to pay dues?
There are no PTA dues. Since all the funding for extra enrichments and community building is raised through the PTA, we ask all parents to kindly contribute to the Annual Fund, if possible, with a suggested donation of $500 per child and $1,500 to our Teacher’s Assistant fund. Our goal is to get 100% of our parents as donors, regardless of the amount, as any and every donation makes a difference!Can I attend PTA meetings?
Absolutely! Please come and join us during the PTA General Meetings found on the general information page.What happened at the last PTA General Meeting?

How does the PTA make decisions?
Executive Board members meet monthly to discuss issues and make organizational decisions. All PTA members present at the General PTA meetings vote for all budgetary matters, which require a vote. A quorum is required at both these meetings in order to vote on official business.What is the SLT?
The School Leadership Team (SLT) meets at least once a month to discuss the needs of the school. The SLT is comprised in equal proportion by administration, teachers and parent entities. A PTA Co-President is automatically an SLT member.
