PTO stands for Parent-Teacher Organization.

A PTO is a volunteer group of parents and teachers that works together to support the school community. Our goal is to improve the educational experience for students by:

  • Organizing school events and fundraisers (like book fairs, spirit nights, festivals etc.)

  • Supporting teachers and staff with supplies or classroom needs

  • Enhancing communication between parents and the school

  • Funding extracurricular programs, field trips, or special assemblies

Unlike a PTA (Parent-Teacher Association), which is part of a national organization, a PTO is usually independent and runs at the local school level, setting its own rules and managing its own funds.

Let us know if you’d like to know how to get involved in one or what roles are typically available. 

Why should you join PTO? 

The purpose of a PTO (Parent-Teacher Organization) is to support students, teachers, and the school community by fostering cooperation between parents and educators. Here are the main goals and purposes:

1. Build Community

  • Create a stronger connection between families and school staff

  • Organize social events that bring people together (family nights, carnivals, etc.)

2. Support Teachers and Staff

  • Provide classroom supplies, equipment, or appreciation events

  • Help with volunteer efforts or assist in classrooms

3. Enhance Student Experiences

  • Fundraise for field trips, extracurricular programs, school improvements, or technology

  • Sponsor enrichment activities like assemblies, clubs, or cultural events

4. Improve Communication

  • Act as a liaison between parents and the school administration

  • Help parents stay informed and involved in school decisions

5. Encourage Parent Involvement

  • Offer opportunities for parents to volunteer and contribute their skills

  • Help create a more welcoming and inclusive school environment

In short, the PTO exists to strengthen the school community and improve the overall educational experience for students
