The purpose of the Parent Teacher Organization is to enhance the education and enrich the environment of our students and the staff in a variety of ways. The Parent Teacher Organization coordinates the following areas, all of which benefit from the efforts of volunteers:
- provides funds for the yearbook
- provides funds for each teacher to enhance their efforts in the classroom
- provides contact room parents with funds to help support classroom activities
- facilitates the hot lunch program
- funds the curriculum enhancement opportunities enjoyed by all ages of students
- provides $5 per student to offset the cost of field trips
- supports fifth grade camp and provides music scholarships for band and orchestra students
- contributes to the purchase of books for the library
- purchases Bibles for third graders that are used through the eighth grade
- purchases items yearly from a teacher “wish list” (which amounted to $30,000 of classroom items this year)
- and does much, much more
