Join the RPE PTA for the 2026–2027 School Year!
Every family can make a difference at River Place Elementary. Whether you have time to volunteer or simply want to support our students, becoming a PTA member is one of the easiest ways to help our school thrive.
Why join the RPE PTA?
- Support every Titan. Our goal is for every student to be represented by at least one parent, guardian, family member, or community supporter.
- Make an impact. Your membership helps fund programs, events, teacher support, campus improvements, and other initiatives that enrich the RPE experience.
- Have a voice. PTA members can vote on important decisions at PTA meetings and have access to the school directory.
- Advocate for students. Your membership supports local, state, and national PTA efforts that champion public education and the health, safety, and well-being of children.
- Enjoy member perks. Texas PTA members receive access to exclusive discounts and special offers from participating businesses.
