- 2022 – 2023 Wyngate PTA Calendar – in progress and updating throughout the year – details below
The Wyngate’s Parent Teacher Association (PTA) sponsors a host of events to support the school, our students and community throughout the year. This year, as we approach a more “normal” school year, the calendar is still subject to change as we work to determine which events make sense to continue with given the current environment. PTA meetings will continue to be held on the first Tuesday of every other month. Dates listed below are subject to change and will be updated as we finalize this year’s calendar.
