About Us
Our PTA serves every student attending the Brickell Academy for Advanced Academics and Arts at Old Donation School in Virginia Beach, Virginia. This includes the full-time academic program for gifted learners (grades 2-8), the gifted dance program (grades 3-8), and the gifted visual arts program for the elementary grades (grades 2-5).
We are part of the National PTA®, a nonprofit association comprised of millions of families, students, teachers, administrators, and business and community leaders. Together, we support educational success, and promote parent involvement in our school.
Our PTA supports the dynamic and challenging curriculum of Brickell Academy with financial support, grant programs, scholarships, and organized volunteer efforts. We strive to support every grade level, with age-appropriate and interesting opportunities. And fun is not forgotten! With your help, we organize after-school clubs, game days, spirit nights, fun runs, chess competitions, art contests, and staff appreciation events. Please join.
MONTHLY PTA MEETINGS: We meet the first Friday of each month in the PTA room. Please check in with the security desk and you will be directed to the meeting room. Meeting dates: Oct. 4th, Nov 1st, Dec. 6th, Jan 10th, Feb 7th, March 6th, April 3rd, May 1st, June 5th
