Welcome back, Garden City High School Community!
On behalf of the Garden City Parent Teacher Association, I would like to welcome you to the 2024-2025 school year and introduce myself, Zeynep Vitale, as your PTA Director for the High School. Stay connected, we have many events coming up. Don’t forget to follow us on Facebook and Instagram @GardenCityPTA.
Join Us! Membership Matters
Your annual membership covers all the schools your children attend. I hope you will join me in supporting the PTA. Just like you, PTA has supported your child from the time they entered Garden City Public Schools and continues to support them through their senior year.
Garden City PTA
Your Membership Matters!
Membership provides you the access to information, builds community, and strengthens the role of parents within our schools and community. Your annual membership covers all the schools your children attend.
Your annual membership and participation in our four fundraisers sponsor cultural and enrichment programs for students, speaker engagements for students and parents, student recognition programs, the work of our committees, and so much more. Many of our events and programs have become long-standing traditions in our district, and our grants have enhanced the educational experience for students in all of our schools. The simple and convenient way to become a member is to join PTA ONLINE.

Ways to Get Involved
As we kick off the year, I would like to thank the High School PTA Board for volunteering to represent PTA committees and chair School committees. We are very lucky to be in a school district that values parent collaboration and works closely with PTA committees to make a difference for our children.
There are also many ways to get involved at the High School, and volunteers are needed throughout the year usually for short-term and limited time commitments. We use several ways to communicate and coordinate these school-wide volunteer opportunities- look for links to GCHS 24/25 VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES and other notifications. Involvement is easy, and there is something for everyone and every schedule! Join one of the many PTA committees that help shape our children’s academic experiences – for more information feel free to contact me.
Please feel free to contact me at highschool@gardencitypta.org if you have any questions or concerns. I sincerely thank you for your continued support of the PTA and I look forward to working with you towards a wonderful and successful year.
Sincerely,
Zeynep Vitale
PTA Director High School
