Alice Carlson PTA earned the National PTA School of Excellence designation for 2021-2023 AND 2022-2024!  Our PTA has enrolled in the PTA School of Excellence Program again to keep the momentum going, continue to listen to our community and make changes, and to hopefully earn and extend our designation through 2025.   By enrolling in this program, our PTA and school administrators are making a year-long commitment to identifying and implementing a plan of action for school improvement based on feedback from our school community and best practice in family engagement.
