Annual Fund 2026-2027
You Belong Here.
That’s what we want every child at Watts to feel — and our Annual Fund makes it happen. The Watts PTA is the school’s largest source of discretionary funding, paying for the classroom supplies, enrichment, afterschool clubs, and Backpack Buddies weekend meals that Durham Public Schools can’t cover.
This year we’re raising $40,000 by November 10. Give during our first week (October 12–18) and you’ll get a George Watts sticker pack — and if we hit our goal, students get to paint their teachers’ faces at Movie Night.
The George Watts Montessori Parent Teacher Association is a volunteer, non-profit organization of parents, teachers, and friends of the school who are working to create an enriching learning environment where all children can thrive.
Our mission is to be a powerful voice for the students, a useful resource for families and the community, and to advocate for the education and overall well-being of every child.
