Drum PTSA Programs & Activities

The following Drum PTSA programs & activities serve our Wolf Pack Community throughout the school year

  • Drum Student Store: A program that incentivizes student's positive behavior with blue tickets that can then be used at the student store to purchase fun items.
  • Popcorn Fridays: The first Friday of each month, all Drum students have the option to enjoy a bag of popcorn during recess. 
  • Student Socials: Afterschool, and free for all, opportunities for students to hangout with other students in their grade, while enjoying activities, games, snacks and refreshments.
  • 7th Grade “Moving On Ceremony”: A celebratory event for our 7th graders as they move up to the Junior High.
  • 6th Grade Camp: PTSA works to support 6th grade camp, by helping to offset registration expense.
