Parent volunteers are the cornerstone of the Diablo Vista PTSA. Without our volunteers, none of our PTSA programs and events would be possible. Please take a look at the variety of volunteer opportunities available and join in where you can. Any time or effort you can contribute is greatly appreciated, as we recognize you are balancing many priorities. Your time is a gift, and no amount is too small.
