Clubs Program Wins Fourth District Award!

We’re excited to share that the Marblehead PTA has been recognized by Fourth District PTA with the Creative Program Award for our Clubs!

This award celebrates PTA programs that support students, families, and the school community in creative and meaningful ways. Our parent-led clubs were recognized for giving Marblehead students fun opportunities to explore their interests, build friendships, and try new things beyond the school curriculum.

This recognition belongs to all of the amazing parent volunteers who stepped up to lead clubs, including Juliet Ekinaka, Stephanie Schneider, Chassidy Ritter, and Monique Brown. Together with their volunteers, they make this program possible! Thank you for your creativity, time, and enthusiasm. It is what makes Marblehead such a special community for our kids.

Fourth District PTA is part of National PTA and California State PTA and supports 398 PTAs across Orange County and a portion of Los Angeles County, representing more than 80,000 members who collectively contribute over 3.5 million volunteer hours each year to support public school students.

We’re so proud of our Marblehead community and grateful to everyone who helped make our clubs such a success. Thank you for continuing to show what PTA can do for our kids!
