One way TC PTA supports our community is by providing a selection of non-perishable food, personal and household hygiene items, school supplies and other basic necessities to families in our community through our school pantry. Check for updates below as we continue to evolve this community resource. Do you have questions, or want to get more involved? - drop us an email at hello@tc-pta.org
