Do you know what the P.T.O. is or does for Stapleton Elementary School?
P.T.O. stands for Parent Teacher Organization. The Stapleton P.T.O. is a non-profit group made up of parents, guardians, teachers, and staff members, who are dedicated to improving the school community and the educational experience of all the students at the Mary E. Stapleton School.Through our volunteering and fundraising efforts, we are able to hold school and community events, purchase needed supplies for all classrooms, provide enrichment to our students, teachers, staff members, families, and community, such as in school assemblies and field trips!
The P.T.O. has one meeting a month that everyone is invited to! At the meetings we discuss upcoming events and fundraisers. We recap on events that happened prior to our meetings and get an idea of how we can improve the event the next year for our students! Meetings are held to get feedback and advice from all!
Although there are "roles" on the P.T.O. Board we all work together! See below a descriptions of the roles and let us know if it's something you may be interested in for the 24/25 school year! At the end of the year we hold board elections and would love some new members/volunteers to join us! Each position on the board can have up to 2 members voted in!
