Welcome to the Apollo PTA Website!


Join and Support Apollo PTA

  

There is strength in numbers and increasing PTA membership,
even by just one, makes it possible to fund essential school resources
and curriculum needs at Apollo Elementary. We invite you to connect
with us by joining, because we can do more together than apart.
It only takes 5 minutes.

Please join/renew Apollo PTA membership to support our various
programs and events.


You also have lots of volunteer opportunities to help your students learn better!!

Author Visit
 
Thursday, October 24th, 2024 
Mark your calendars, Apollo Rockets! We are hosting an author visit on Thursday, October 24th. It is the incredible, true story of Finding Gobi. And you can order autographed books!
Dion Leonard and Gobi the dog will be visiting us in the afternoon on the 24th for two assemblies, one for grades TK-2nd, and another for grades 3-5. Gobi will be on stage only and will not be interacting with students.
Want to order a book? Book order forms were sent home with each student. You can also find the document here: https://bit.ly/4f6oykH
Each book ordered includes Dion’s autograph and Gobi’s real paw print inside. Order forms and payment (check or exact cash -no change given) must be returned in a SEALED envelope (no online orders this time). Orders must have student name, teacher, and grade level written on both the order form and the sealed envelope. Books will be distributed on the day after the event.
Deadline to order a book: Monday, October 21st.
