I hope everyone is enjoying the last few weeks of summer! I’m Ali Ouska, and for those I haven’t met yet, I’ll be serving as Romona’s PTA President this year. My husband, Jimmy, and I have twins, Jude and Palmer, heading into second grade.
We have an amazing board that has already been hard at work preparing for the 2026–2027 year ahead. The PTA helps connect Romona families with our school, and we want to hear from you throughout the year. Please feel free to reach out with questions, ideas, or suggestions.
With a lot coming up before and shortly after the first day of school on Wednesday, August 19, you’ll find our first round of important dates and reminders below.
Join us as we brighten the sidewalks with cheerful messages and colorful art to welcome our Mustangs back to school! The Romona PTA will provide the chalk.
Welcome Back Coffee - Aug 19th
Come say hi on the first day of school, after drop-off! The PTA Exec Board will be outside the Kindergarten main doors with coffee and information about ways to get involved this year.
