Holliman Elementary has announced updates and an FAQ resource for the Parent Teacher Association (PTA).
The Holliman Elementary PTA will convene its first meeting of the school year on Wednesday, September 10, 2025, at 6:15 p.m. in the school library. A Zoom option is available upon request. The PTA is organizing its annual Trunk or Treat event on Saturday, October 18, 2025, from 3 to 5 p.m., and is seeking committee volunteers as well as at least 20 families to decorate trunks. Additional sign-up details will be provided in a flyer. According to Holliman Elementary, September dine-out fundraisers are scheduled at UNO on Thursday, September 18, and Texas Roadhouse on Thursday, September 25. A portion of sales will be donated to the PTA when flyers are presented.
Membership renewal for the Holliman Elementary PTA is required annually. Dues are sent to the Rhode Island State PTA, which forwards a portion to the National PTA and provides access to training and resources. Members are not obligated to attend meetings or volunteer. To volunteer, individuals must have a current PTA membership and an up-to-date background check (BCI) on file with the main office; this can be completed at the Warwick Police Station and must be renewed annually.
