On behalf of the PTO, we would like to welcome everyone back to school. You ask what is PTO? PTO stands for Parent-Teacher Organization, consisting of parents and teachers working together to support and enrich all students. We support school staff, help promote student self-esteem, and assist in efforts to solve school needs through volunteering and funding.
| First Meeting! Monday, September 18 @ 7pm in the Media Center |
We are a small and busy group! This is where you come in! We need your help, and so do the students. A special thanks to all our volunteers from last year for their hard work! We have started planning some exciting events this year in hopes to get more parents involved in their child’s education. The PTO is a team effort in which we cannot succeed on our own. We hope you can join us to learn more about how you can help and how the PTO helps Robert Moton!
