Why Does the PTO hold fundraisers?
Fundraisers are the PTO's primary sources of revenue and make it possible to lend direct financial support to our schools year after year. This PTO funding is used to sponsor school activities and programs (enrichment), fund special requests from the school staff, offset out-of-pocket expenses incurred by staff for the benefit of their classrooms, host family events, add to the field trip fund, buy new playground equipment, and many more events and items. The end result is an enhanced educational experience for our children in an environment that energizes and motivates them toward learning. It is your support of the PTO that makes all of this possible.
Current Fundraisers
The Fall Fundraiser has just completed. We made just over $14,500. Thank you so much for all that you did to help.
The purpose of this fundraiser is to raise funds for the operation of the PTO. So please help us raise money for the organization! The organization funds extra items for the school such as supplemental gas money for field trips, a stipend for each class room and teacher for supplies, teacher and student appreciation as well as many other things. Thank you.
