Thank You Members!
In September, Round Rock High School PTSA officially received the Head Start Award from Texas PTA. This award is given to PTAs who have at least 85% of last year's membership! While we have not officially received the September and October awards yet, we have already met the membership numbers to receive those awards as well. So, thank you to every member who joined this year! We could not have done it without all of you.
It's never too late to join. Join today at the link below.
Reflections
What does your culture mean to you? Share your story with the world through the National PTA Reflections program. This year's theme, "What My Culture Means to Me," invites Round Rock High School students to celebrate identity, heritage, traditions, and personal experiences through creative expression. Students can submit their entries in any of these categories:
Dance Choreography
Film Production
Literature
Music Composition
Photography
Visual Arts
Accessible Arts Category
Your voice matters, and your work could advance from the local level all the way to the National PTA competition. Submit your entry by October 25, 2026 and represent yourself, represent Round Rock!
Clothes Closet
The Clothes Closet is a service project sponsored by the Round Rock ISD Council of PTAs. The program provides gently used clothing, as well as new socks and underwear, to Round Rock ISD students in need.
All students attending any of the 56 Round Rock ISD schools are eligible to receive services. If you need services, see the school nurse or your counselor for a voucher.
The Clothes Closet has two locations: Voigt Elementary and Anderson Mill Elementary. The Clothes Closet is always looking for volunteers and donations.
To learn more about the Round Rock ISD Clothes Closet and to find out how to donate gently used clothing or monetary donations, please visit the RRISD Council of PTAs Clothes Closet website.
