FAAM PTA - building community between our school and families.
There’s no wrong way to PTA and we invite every family to participate because we can do more together than apart. How do you PTA?
Upcoming FAAM Events
Join the PTA
PTA membership and dues support your child by funding essential educational and curriculum needs; advocating on behalf of children and educators at the local, state and national levels; and building an inclusive school community for all families.
Donate to keep the teacher snacks stocked!
VIP PARKING AUCTION
Afternoon Pick-Up can take a good chunk of time out of your day (particularly this year due to the ongoing construction on the two properties across the street)!
Between showing up (egregiously) early to ensure a good spot and all of the waiting in line, there's no telling how much of your valuable time is spent at afternoon dismissal!
But what if we told you... You can skip the line AND the wait!!
That's right! With FAAM's VIP Pick-Up Pass you receive the perk of being able to grab your child(ren) from an easy-to-access VIP Pick-Up Area separate from the "general population".
This allows you to hop back in your car, hit the road ahead of the afternoon carpool traffic, and get to where you need to be in a timely manner! (4:00 sports practice, anyone???) Talk about a game changer and a time saver!

The mission of Forest Avenue Academic Magnet Elementary School is to encourage productive and responsible students by providing a challenging and stimulating curriculum taught by dedicated and innovative professionals in a safe, positive, and nurturing environment.
Supporting what makes FAAM special
Every donation to the Forest Avenue PTA helps create a school where students can learn, explore, and thrive. From improving the spaces our children use every day to providing teachers with the tools they need, your support helps fund projects and programs that directly benefit our school community.
A MORE WELCOMING SCHOOL
School beautification & improvements
We want Forest Avenue to feel as special as the students who walk through its doors every day. The PTA is helping fund much-needed painting, beautification, and other improvements that make our school a brighter, more welcoming place to learn.
Current project need: $22,000
HANDS-ON LEARNING
STEM Lab
Forest Avenue’s STEM Lab gives students opportunities to learn through hands-on exploration and discovery. PTA support helps keep this incredible resource going by providing ongoing care for the animals, maintaining the aquariums, and funding other STEM Lab needs throughout the year.
Annual PTA investment: $5,100
TOOLS FOR GREAT TEACHING
Technology for our teachers
Great teachers need reliable tools. The PTA recently invested $10,000 in new laptops and desktop computers for Forest Avenue teachers—helping replace outdated technology and giving teachers the resources they need to support our students.
Your donations make investments like this possible.
EVERY GIFT ADDS UP
Whether you give $10, $50, $100, or more, your contribution joins with others from across our Forest Avenue community to make a meaningful difference for our students and teachers.
Thank you for helping make Forest Avenue an even better place to learn and grow.
“Forest Avenue ranked 2nd in the state of Alabama!”
