Financial health
We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Impact evidence
Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.
Programs described in its return (3)
- $11,872 spent. Makers Fair - This is an annual event in which students and community members set up tables and sell handmade items. The PTA organizes the event and manages the sales. We collect all the money and then write checks to each "maker" for their proceeds. The expenses for this event are almost entirely paying the makers their share of the proceeds, plus a very small amount for flyers, supplies, etc. Hundreds of people attend this fun and festive community event.
- $6,352 spent. Kermes - This is an annual spring festival for the entire community, with musical performances, food trucks, face painting, balloons, bounce house, and pinata making. The expenses are paying for all of these activities. Hundreds of people attend this event every year.
- $8,442 spent. In the school year 2024/2025, the PTA worked with the school and the community to raise money for a new sound system for the gymnasium. School and PTA events use this space and the previous system was not sufficient for our needs. The new sound system benefits the 500 students at Scott whenever there is an assembly or event, and benefits the larger community when we hold meetings, workshops, or concerts.
