Join us for PIE!  Our PTSA PIE (Parenting Idea Exchange) is an informal discussion group to share parenting ideas and experiences, to offer support, and to eat pie.  It's a unique opportunity to bounce ideas around and connect with other AHS families.  There is a specific topic for each meeting and recommended reading.  The reading is NOT mandatory.  Meetings are held 3-4 times per year.   If there are fewer than 5 RSVPs the meeting will be cancelled.  
PIE will not be meeting again until the fall.

Dear AHS Community,

Thanks to your support and generosity thus far, AHS PTSA will continue to have the flexibility to support the students, teachers and staff at AHS. In the coming months, you will have the opportunity to see where your generosity has made an impact. Stay tuned.

If you haven’t joined PTSA and/or made a donation, it's not too late! Your tax-deductible donations directly benefit our students and AHS. For Online Membership & Donations, click on the “Donate” button at upper right side of this page or go to donate@alamedaptsa.org.  Did you know many employers have matching gift programs. Please inquire. 

Last year, PTSA contributed nearly $70,000 to AHS. Some of the items PTSA supported are listed under "Sign-ups and Forms."

Once again, thanks for your support! Together, we make a difference. 

Get involved and stay connected!

Together we, the AHS Community, can make a difference at Alameda High, and PTSA is committed to doing just that through its volunteer, financial, and communicational efforts. But, we need your support!

Here are 3 simple ways to show your support and nurture the success of our AHS students.

1. Donate Generously to PTSA: Your generous donation allows PTSA to provide AHS with more modern technology (interactive whiteboards, handheld student response systems, and computer equipment), educational materials, lab equipment, and program support. You may donate online at: www.AlamedaPTSA.org or complete and return the envelope found in the packet or in the PTSA Forms Locker (by clicking here ).

2. Join PTSA: Adults & students are urged to join: $15/member. PTA is the largest, highest profile volunteer organization that supports public schools, children and families in the nation. Your $15 membership supports its voice. Also, California PTA offers college scholarships to student members. You may join online at www.AlamedaPTSA.org or complete and return the envelope found in the packet.

3. Support eScrip Rebate Programs: Safeway, Nob Hill, Lucky, & online eScrip rebates are excellent income sources for PTSA and cost nothing to you.  Please refer to the form in the PTSA Forms Locker (click here for the form ) and designate AHS PTSA as your rebate recipient.  Please encourage friends, family, and neighbors to do the same.

Thanks to the incredible dedication of many volunteers at AHS, including the awesome PTSA officers & chairs listed on the attached roster, we can be proud of our AHS Community (students, families, faculty and staff). It's going to be a great year!

Thanks in advance for your support!
