The CDM PTA (Parent Teacher Association) is a parent-funded and all volunteer based organization whose mission is to positively impact, support, and enhance the overall learning environment at CDM for all students.

We organize community-building events, sponsor educational programs and assemblies for students, support teachers and fund school site needs.

CDM PTA Read-a-Thon will be back.

What is the Read-a-thon?

The Read-a-thon is a week long, school-wide program that encourages children to read more. It is also our most important PTA fundraiser! 100% of the proceeds will be used for school site needs, educational programs and community events at Carmel Del Mar. This means it supports all students at the school.
