These elements reflect a community that involves families and students through cultural activities and literacy-focused programs.

Parent Teacher Association (PTA)
Public sources do not document a formal Parent Teacher Association (PTA) for English Talents School. The available materials mention school-wide events and campaigns but do not specify a PTA structure, committees, or regular meetings. The Ramadan Campaign 'Fayna Al-Khair' and the DEAR Time initiative are examples of community activities that involve families, though they are not framed as PTA programs. Other databases list the school as an IB World School in Jordan but do not provide PTA details. I can search for official documents or contact the school to confirm whether a formal PTA exists and to provide a detailed profile if you would like.
