• Kindergarten Orientation is an opportunity for parents of kindergarteners to meet the teachers, principal, vice principal, PTA members, Friends of Ericson members, Dads Club, and other school staff. Topics discussed at the orientation include expectations, guidelines, school procedures, programs and ideas that will make your child's introduction to public education a positive experience.
• Back-to-School NightThis event gives you a glimpse of your child's daily life at school and an opportunity to learn about the curriculum. You'll be able to meet your child's teachers, the principal, vice principal and other staff members and your fellow parents. You can also sign up to join the PTA, Friends of Ericson or Dads Club. Research shows that parent involvement in schools helps students achieve more and schools thrive.
• Red Ribbon Week is a National PTA program sponsored by individual PTA units to promote and reinforce the message "Say No to Drugs."
• Movie Nights-Join the Ericson community and have some family fun! Nov. 13, 2015 PTA will host Movie Night in the M/U at 6:30.

• Book Fair is a special reading event that is held at Ericson where kids and families get to shop for their very own books! It's like a mini-bookstore, only much better! And every book has been hand-selected, reviewed and approved by reading specialists. Featuring a terrific assortment of books hand-selected by book experts, a Book Fair helps build school, classroom, and home libraries. Plus, a Book Fair is a great way to support and encourage reading and raise funds for our school.

• Field Trips Transportation: Students will have the opportunity to go on field trips that are carefully selected by the teachers and coincide with units studied in that grade level. Ericson PTA sponsors the transportation to these field trips. If you are interested in volunteering to be a chaperone on field trips, you will have the opportunity to do so with your child's teacher.
• Assist in ensuring School Picture Days run smoothly.
