QEI-Durham's Parent-Teacher Association

    If you are new to QEI, we welcome you to this wonderful school and hope you will
    enjoy your stay here! The PTA benefits our children in many ways. Throughout
    the year, we will be looking for your help as a volunteer, not only for activities
    and fundraisers, but, maybe most importantly, in meetings where we welcome
    ideas on how we can help enrich our children's education.

    Our dues and fundraisers help pay for budget items such as laminating paper,
    refreshments for Open House and Graduation, special programs and workshops
    for the students and teachers, classroom supplies for the teachers, as well as
    special projects such as upgrades to the computer lab/media center.

    Please join us in improving our school! You can get started now. Below are
    some passive-fund raising activities such as grocery store courtesy cards,
    (registering your courtesy card so that purchases made at designated vendors
    provide a commission payable to the school), collecting printer cartridges, and
    even online shopping. See if one of these opportunities appeals to you:

    Grocery Store Courtesy Cards
    Food Lion

    Online Shopping
    Amazon.com - Buy books and uniforms for your child and benefit QEI. You can
    find more links to school uniforms here.

    Recycling Opportunities
    The Funding Factory recycles cell phones, ink jet, and laser printer cartridges
    that have been used once (no recycled cartridges, please!). We accumulate
    points that we can then trade for supplies we need for the school.
