PTA Officers 

2024-2025

Interested in knowing what being a PTA committee member involves? Descriptions of all the PTA Executive Board and other committee chair positions are detailed here.

Why join the LOPTA Board?

Being a board member allows you to have a direct impact on how PTA funds are spent to support Live Oak. You'll also get to know and work with amazing Live Oak parents, teachers, and staff. 

The  Live Oak PTA Executive Board meets on the first Wednesday of every month. Executive Board meetings are open to board members and invited guests. Being on the Board doesn't have to take a lot of time; it simply requires a desire to help the school be the best it can be.
