Romona PTA

Parent Teacher Association

PTA Programs & Events

Throughout the year, the PTA holds many events with two goals in mind. Those goals are to strengthen the community (events like Rockin' Romona and Open Gym Nights) and raise money to fund all the enrichment activities our children utilize the year and support the school with gifts, i.e cameras, rugs for the classroom, art tables, etc.

We hope everyone can come out and enjoy at least one event this year!

Lunch Clubs

The Romona PTA is proud to offer a wide selection of lunch clubs that are held during the winter months. Registration will begin in December.  Please check back for more information.

Birthday Books

If you and your child love books and enjoy making birthdays memorable, then the Romona Birthday Book Club is for you! The Birthday Book Club is an opportunity for students and their families to recognize birthdays in a special way by donating the cost of a new book (approximately $20) to be used to purchase a book for Romona’s library.

To make a donation, please complete the form below. You will be able to pay with credit card or PayPal.

Your child will then get to pick out their book the month of their birthday (or in September or May for summer birthdays). The book will be identified with a personalized nameplate including your child’s name, birth month & day, and donation year. Your child will also get to be the first student to check the book out of the library. The book will honor your child’s birthday for years to come.
Thank you for making a lasting donation to our school library.

Bike Safety Trips

The Bicycle Safety Day Committee coordinates with the Wilmette Bicycle Task Force and the Active Transportation Alliance to help children learn and review bike safety tips during the school day. While the programs are led by a representative from the Active Transportation Alliance, committee volunteers help children in Grade 2 use the bike racks, lock/unlock bikes, adjust helmets and follow a safety obstacle course on their bikes following a safety presentation. In Grade 4, the children review bike safety rules with the Active Transportation Alliance during one PE Period. Both Bicycle Safety Days take place in the Spring.
