Join the Kilmer Middle School PTA!

The PTA conducts ONE fundraiser each year. Our entire PTA budget comes from this fundraising effort, so please give generously. We suggest and hope for a minimum $50 donation per student attending KMS. We are hoping that many of you will consider donating more as many of our families are unable to contribute at all.

The PTA funds the following:

  • After School Activities and Student Clubs
  • Kilmer Newspaper PAW prints
  • Community Support
  • Landscaping
  • Library Support, Parents programs, assemblies
  • Support for Classes – art, technology, languages, music & PE
  • House Support & Activities for ALL students
  • Teacher Appreciation & Hospitality  & More!

In addition to our annual membership and donation drive, we are trying to raise an ADDITIONAL $22,000 for a mobile computer lab. We were able to purchase a computer lab last year, but Mr. Tyson's goal is for each House to have a cart. This will make it easier for KMS students to take eCart exams, SOLs, PALS, as well as use the computers in class. Please consider making a donation to both our general fund as well as to the computer cart drive.

  • It's so easy to join (one membership per family) and donate - go to www.pay4schoolstuffonline.com. Sign up for an account for your child(ren) - each family just creates one account. You can then pay for your membership and donation with your credit card. It's fast and secure!!
  • PTA members will receive a copy of the Kilmer MS Directory. If you donate at least $50 you will receive a Cougars Car Magnet – show your Kilmer Pride throughout the streets of Vienna!
  •  Again this is the PTA's ONLY fundraiser this year. Please donate generously! Thank you in advance for your support.
