The Peterson PTSA is powered entirely by parent volunteers. Every event, program, and activity we offer is made possible by families who generously give their time and talents. Your involvement helps create the vibrant school community our students enjoy.
Volunteering is also a wonderful way to connect with other Peterson families, build lasting friendships, and get to know our teachers and staff beyond the classroom.
If you would like to volunteer at the school, please visit the SCUSD Volunteer website to complete the required volunteer packet.
