The PTA membership fee + iGNITE enrichment fee for the 2026-2027 school year at Central is $155 per student (discounts apply for multiple students).  

PTA Membership goes toward: 

- Your access to the online directory** (until 7/31/2027)

- A yearbook for each student

- Dues to the Illinois PTA

- Many of the services that the PTA provides for the Central community, such as classroom stipends for the teachers (for items needed in the classroom), Mileage Club, student council, Green Team, bike safety, STEAM Night, Fourth Grade Farewell, Kindergarten Popsicles, Landscaping, and garden maintenance, etc.

iGNITE is Central School PTA's ONLY campaign to fund enrichment activities for K-4th grade through the school year. (This is separate from KEEP39). 100% of your iGNITE payment goes toward enrichment. The enrichment activities students receive each year depend on the amount of iGNITE funds we receive. (iGNITE payments are tax deductible. The Central School PTA is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Our FEIN is 36-3221650.)

Please consider payments to iGNITE if you would like your child to partake in various enrichment activities such as the following: 

- Field trips 

- Workshops for mindfulness, writing, creative dramatics, etc.

- Programs for science, gardening

- Art Awareness projects

- Invited author visits
