Please give a bit of your time to the PTO. We make it easy and fun to volunteer your time.
Please use our online volunteer form (or download it in PDF) to see all the ways you can help. Just check the areas you’re interested in (you can always say no later) and we’ll get back to you on how you can help out.
As you know, all parents are required to put in 20 parent participation hours. We’re your best friend in that department! Remember, PTO meetings count as well.
Want to help but not sure what you can do?
Attend a PTO meeting or contact us, and we will be able to find one of our needs that matches your skill and personality.
We want our volunteers to organize around their passions, so if there’s something you have to offer and we’re too foolish to ask for it, please take the initiative and let us know! We’re always open to suggestions for new events and fundraisers.
