Open Volunteer Opportunities
After School Program Coordinator
**Immediate Need**
We're interested in bringing extracurricular activities back to Timber Lane, but we need parent volunteers to help. We are looking for a parent to work with the PTA in support of making this happen. This work would likely entail communicating with after school program vendors, the PTA Board, and TLES admin to determine schedules and logistics, and related activities.
Email board@timberlanepta.com if you're interested in helping us out, or just to learn more before you decide.
Special Education PTA Representation
**Immediate Need**
The FCPS Special Education PTA (SEPTA) is a PTA organization affiliated with the State and National PTA but specifically established to address the unique needs of special education, special needs, and disabled students and families. We are looking for a parent to represent TLES and serve as the liaison with SEPTA & the TLES PTA.
Email board@timberlanepta.com if interested.

Election Day Bake Sale
Donation deadline: 11/2/2026
Each year on election day, the PTA sells homemade (or store-bought!) baked goods outside the school in an effort to raise money. You can sign up to donate baked goods by clicking here.
You can sign up to volunteer your time on Tuesday, November 3rd to work at the bake sale stand by clicking here.
Bingo Night Coordinator
Volunteer before: 12/1/2026
A great way to get involved within the PTA is to help coordinate the annual Bingo Night scheduled in February. Planning for Bingo Night does not start until December/early January.
Supporting this work typically involves coordinating food orders, ensuring we have appropriate supplies and prizes, and coordinating volunteers to set up/clean up and support the evening. This is not a substantial time commitment but helps ensure this fun family event is a success!
