Get Involved at Carthay

To volunteer in the classroom, chaperone field trips, and help with other on-site school events, LAUSD requires you become an approved registered volunteer—click here to begin the process.

Once you’ve been approved, head here to volunteer‍ ‍for an upcoming event!

It Takes a Village

At Carthay, we believe that dance, PE, and community gardening are just as important as learning the basics of math and reading. Unfortunately these valuable enrichment activities are not funded by the district.

As Carthay’s community, it’s up to ALL of us to build a well-rounded school experience for our students. Head here to donate, and here to learn more about what specifically the PTA does and how to help.

This Year’s Goal = $90,000
