About PTA

Golden PTA is a fundraising and community-building non-profit created to enhance the educational experience for our children. Through the extraordinary efforts of parents, Golden PTA volunteers, raises funds, oversees enrichment programs and participates in parent-sponsored activities to give our children a wonderfully enriched environment. Golden PTA supplements the academic program of John L. Golden Elementary through activities and special events, enhances a sense of community, and fundraises to help meet uncovered school expenditures.

The strength of our school community comes from our active and hands-on volunteer parent body who support the many Golden PTA and school programs.

We welcome your involvement and participation in making our school the best it can be!

Golden PTA’s volunteer board is elected each year by the membership. The Board is comprised of a President, 1st VP Programs, 2nd VP Ways & means, 3rd VP Membership, 4th VP Student Services, 5th VP Communication, Secretary, Treasurer, Parliamentarian, Historian, and Auditor. Golden’s PTA is a unit of the California State PTA.
