Welcome to the Jeffrey Elementary School PTO! The PTO is working to create a wonderful partnership with the teachers, staff and parents of children Kindergarten through grade four. We are also working on several very exciting projects, including the installation of a fresh water tropical fish tank in the Library/Media Center. Planning is underway for a terrific year of cultural arts events, winter workshops, classroom publishing and a first annual winter carnival! The PTO is committed to offering many ways for you to be involved in your child’s educational experience. Opportunities include helping in the classroom, attending field trips, helping or baking for special events at different times during the year and participating in various fundraisers throughout the year. Fundraising activities provide opportunities and enrichment programs for your child and include the membership drive, gift wrap & pie sale, the Scholastic Book Fair, kid’s art stationery well as a walk-a-thon for books. Please look around the website for volunteer opportunities and events that might be of interest to you. MISSION STATEMENT The goals of the Jeffrey PTO are to create a closer relationship between home and school, to enhance the learning environment, to provide and maintain an open network of communication between school and community and to foster parent/guardian involvement in the educational process. INVOLVEMENT The Jeffrey PTO needs involvement from all its members. All your ideas, suggestions and talents are much needed and appreciated. We want to thank all members who have already agreed to chair positions and would welcome those who might agree to chair an open position. Please check the list to see which positions are still available. Any committee that you are interested in can always use another volunteer. VOLUNTEERS Volunteers are the backbone of the PTO. We are looking for volunteers, both long and short term, to work in the school with the children and help out with special projects. If you have time and wish to be involved at this level, please call the Volunteer Coordinator. You may also fill out the Volunteer form that has been sent home with your child and return the form to school during the first week of classes. If you would like to work on a committee or find out more about an open chair position, please contact one of the Co-Presidents. |
