About the Redwood PTA
The Redwood PTA (Parent Teacher Association) organizes many activities to
support teachers and students in the classrooms,

Suppport the Redwood PTA and leave a lasting impression on Redwood by purchasing a brick to be engraved with the inscription of your choice. The personalized bricks are laid in the Redwood quad area. This makes a great gift to the school from your graduating eighth grader! See Brick Purchase Form for details.
Your used toner cartridges are worth money to Redwood! Here's all you do: Place a note on your eligible printer to remind yourself to save your next used cartridge, bring your used cartridge (in a ziplock bag in case the ink leaks out) to the office, and place it in the Recycled Toner area under the front table. Broken and remanufactured cartridges are not acceptable.
