Parent Teacher Organization
Dear Parents,
The Ada Christian PTO extends a warm welcome to those of you who are new to our school, and a “welcome back” to all those returning for the 2023-2024 school year. We are excited to begin another wonderful year at Ada Christian School.
The PTO is a volunteer organization made up of parents, teachers and administrators all dedicated to the successful education of our children. The purpose of our organization is to aid the students and staff by providing support for educational and recreational needs and to encourage ACS school spirit. The ACS PTO works hard to help make the school year both enjoyable and exciting for students, teachers and parents. It is our mission to support our teachers and staff in delivering our school’s mission – To equip students for service in God’s world.
We encourage all of God’s people to get involved! Everything we do is powered by volunteers and we are always seeking those who would serve to make a difference in the lives of our children. Every positive imprint we make on our children is a lasting part of their happy memories during their school experience.
Our calendar lists the many events we have planned for the upcoming school year. By volunteering, you can interact with the students, become friends with other parents, and work together to accomplish goals that truly make a difference.
To volunteer or gather more information please contact Janna Grayburn at 630-936-8540 or gro.naitsirhcada@otp. You can find updates in the Ada Connection Newsletter each Wednesday. Our group meets monthly to share ideas, discuss upcoming events, and plan fundraisers to financially support programs. This is a wonderful way to find out what is happening at our school through the PTO. We truly believe that our diligent service enhances the learning environment of our children, and along the way we are blessed to develop lasting friendships and create great memories ourselves; all while responding to a call to serve. We’d be honored to have you join us!
In His Service,
Janna Grayburn
