PTO

Welcome to the 2017 - 18 school year! The PTO is looking forward to making this another great year for students and staff in our district. Last year we were able to help throughout the district. This would not have been possible without the help and support of families participating in fundraising and volunteering in activities throughout the school year.

If you are interested in volunteering for PTO events, please contact one of our officers (see right column). Don't forget to "like" us on Facebook to get the most recent updates on what is going on with the PTO.

Box Tops for Education is a easy way to earn money for our school. Each year we have earned thousands of dollars that has been used to help students and staff throughout the district.

How Can I Earn Box Tops for the PTO?

Clip Box Tops: Box Tops are found on a wide variety of products that you probably already buy. Some products include cereal, paper products, boxed meals, some produce, and more! See a full list of participating products on the BTFE website. Clip these Box Tops and send them to school with your child.
Promotional Contests: The Box Tops for Education site often runs contests that allow you to enter to win a huge amount of Box Tops for your school. Most contests can be entered daily. Visit their site to see the most current promotion going on.
Bonus App Program: Download the Box Tops Bonus App program to your smart phone. When you open the app you can find offers to BUY products then SCAN your receipt and EARN.

School Contest:

The contest will take place during the entire school year. Collection sheets will be sent home with elementary students and additional sheets are available in the elementary school offices. Clip out the coupons and adhere them to the sheet. Fill out the child's name, teacher and grade. Return the sheet to the school office. The sheets will be collected by the program coordinators and recorded by teacher. In May 2018 the winning classroom will be announced and the winners will have a party or event before the end of the school year. We will announce the prize as soon as it has been approved.
