Working Together to Improve our Schools

We are often asked – “What do the PTA and the Foundation do, and why do we need both?” We thought we’d take this opportunity to introduce both organizations and explain what each group does and how they complement one another.

For starters, both the PTA and the Corte Madera Larkspur School Foundation (CMLSF) are staffed by parent volunteers who are passionate about improving the quality of our kids’education, supporting teachers and administrators, keeping families connected to school events, beautifying the campus and much, much more! Click here for further details on what each organization does, who is involved, and how you can participate to make a difference in your child’s education.



We share the objectives of the National PTA...

• To promote the welfare of children and youth in home, school, community and place of worship.
• To raise the standards of home life.

• To secure adequate laws for the care and protection of children and youth.
• To bring into closer relation the home and the school, that parents and teachers may cooperate intelligently in the education of children and youth.
• To develop between educators and the general public such united efforts as will secure for all children and youth the highest advantages in physical, mental, social, and spiritual education.
