Special Music School PTA Annual Contributions
Your support enables the PTA, along with the Department of Education and Kaufman Music Center, to provide your child an exceptional educational experience.
The SMS community needs our unwavering support! When 100% of SMS families contribute to the PTA (even with just $1), it meaningfully improves our grant applications. This is especially important when schools are facing drastic cuts and administrators will apply for more grants than ever before.
We need 100% PARTICIPATION! All contributions are TAX-DEDUCTIBLE.
See our Flyer!
Suggested 2020-21 Contributions Per Student
| 100% Participation | Tier 1 | Tier 2 | Tier 3 |

The above are suggested participation levels, based on what your family can give. No contribution is too small or big!
