How can you help?

You can set your own level of commitment to participating in the PTO. Here are some options, and we're sure something will fit your schedule:

You can...

  • Attend monthly meetings, which last about 1.5 hours. You can attend in person or virtually, whatever your preference. 
  • Volunteer for a committee to help plan and create our larger events or support fundraising efforts
  • Participate in our many annual fundraisers, like those listed above 
  • Become a Room Parent
  • If time doesn't allow for volunteering, please consider a donation! Everything we do is funded by donations made to support the PTO. Whether
    through fundraisers, events, or individual donations, we cannot do what we do for our students, teachers, staff, and families without your continued
    support.
