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.

It's fall y'all! River Place Elementary is hosting a Fall Fest with trunk-or-treating, costumes, a rock wall, Handels Ice Cream Truck, and more! The event will be Friday, October 23 from 5:00-7:00pm in the school parking lot.

To make this event a success, we need lots of volunteers including:

-Host a car for trunk-or-treating (two hours). Decorate the trunk of your car and hand out candy.

-Supervise the inflatables in the gym (1 hour shift, so you can still hang out!)

-Donate candy and goodies that will be distributed during trunk-or-treating.

More details will be provided once you have signed up. Thank you for helping make this a special event for our kids! Sign up here!
