The participation of the parents at PS9 makes all the difference in terms of the quality of our children's education. Volunteers, working to make our fundraising events a success, make these programs possible:

• Assistant Teachers - we pay the salary of every PS 9 assistant teacher for every classroom, K through 5.
  Without our work there would be no assistant teachers.
• Spanish language program for all grades
• Our highly regarded chess program; teacher salary and supplies
• Publication of the News@9 Newsletter
• Library resources
• Fabulous art, music, and movement enrichments and events like the Jazz Jive and Bash the Trash
• Music, Art and Science Materials
• Babysitting and pizza for our kids during evening PTA meetings

There are many ways to contribute to the volunteer effort at PS 9 - everything from baking your favorite cookie recipe for a bake sale to being on the Executive Board of the PTA. We’re sure that you can find something that you enjoy doing that fits your abilities and availability.
