WHAT DOES PTO DO?

PTO supports school events through volunteers and also plans some PTO sponsored events. Each year, PTO pays for hospitality lunches for the entire staff, special programs, and hosts holiday and end of the year parties for all the students. We also put surplus funds toward the goal of a major purchases.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO PARTICIPATE IN PTO FUNDRAISERS?

It’s a simple as this: If PTO doesn’t raise enough money every year to cover the cost of their budget, then they have to make budget cuts for the following year. That means wonderful assets to the school such as the library, music, art, the science lab, and hospitality luncheons that the teachers are so grateful for – all those things suffer because of lack of funds. If we want our school to be the best possible environment for our children, it is up to us to make it as such.
