FORMS
Hard copies of forms listed below can be found in the PTA file in the main office or downloaded here.
PURCHASES
Reimbursement/Check Request Forms must be completed for the following:
- Reimbursements for purchases made
- Check requests to be sent directly to vendors
This form must be submitted with receipts and/or invoices. Completed forms may be placed in the Treasury mailbox located in the main office.
IMPORTANT! The PTA does not reimburse sales tax. When making purchases for the PTA, please present the tax-exempt letter to the store/vendor at the point of sale. Copies of this letter can be found in the PTA mailbox at school. (Note: Office Depot has its own tax exempt number, which is included at the bottom of the tax-exempt letter).
CASH BOXES
If you require a cash box for your event, please complete a Cash Box Request Form. This form should be completed and returned to the Treasurer’s mailbox 5 days prior to the event. The Treasury mailbox is located in the main office of the school. The Treasurer, Michele Irvin, will contact you when the cash box is ready to be picked up. If you are unsure of the dollar amount needed for the cash box, please contact the Treasurer or the person who handled the event the year prior.
