In Need of Reflections Volunteers

The Caraway PTA needs immediate volunteers to help with the Reflections program in October. The Reflections program provides opportunities for recognition and access to the arts which boost student confidence and success in the arts and in life. Students submit their completed works of art in one or all of the available arts categories:


  • Dance Choreography
  • Film Production
  • Literature
  • Music Composition
  • Photography
  • Visual Arts


If you are interested in helping out with Reflections please reach out to Matt at carawaypta.programs@gmail.com to get involved! Your help is needed and appreciated!

Help us Bring Clubs Back to Caraway

We're looking forward to having clubs again for the 2022-23 school year! We have the supplies and the location -- all we need is you! We're looking for parent volunteers to run the following clubs:
