PTO Committees

The PTO has many Event and Non-event based Committees.  The Event Commitees can be found HERE.  Non-event based committees are responsible for many of the day-to-day tasks that keep the PTO running smoothly and helping to both raise funds and school spirit!   Many of the committee jobs can be done at home, and are conveneient ways for working parents to lend volunteer time on the weekend and in the evening.  For more information on one of the committees, please click a link below (not all pages are currently available, they will become active when the page is complete).  The purpose of the PTO is three-fold: 1) To raise funds, 2) To build community and 3) To educate.  Some events have just one focus, some have 2 or all three.  Each event listed below also has a color code.  Those events with a Green circle are meant to be fundraisers, the Gold circle are to build community and Red is to educate or inform.
