The Skillin School PTA is a volunteer-based, 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2012 that supports and serves the approximately 60 teachers and faculty members and 300 students and their families of Waldo T. Skillin Elementary School. All donations are 100% tax-deductible and directly impact and enhance the Skillin community. 

The Skillin School PTA steps in whenever there is a need to supplement the educational experience – including providing funds for field trips for real-world learning experiences, as well as hosting community-building events and performances by artists or musicians at our school.
