Parent Teacher Organization

Did you know that as a parent or guardian of an Ettrick Elementary student you are automatically a member of the PTO?

With our hectic schedules it is sometimes hard to find the time to help out. That's why we appreciate the time you took to complete the volunteer forms and let us know where your interests are and how we can best utilize your time and talents.

The PTO has developed the following committees that you are welcome to join or take part in:   Fundraising, Activities, Communication and Teacher support.

The Ettrick Elementary School PTO is a nonprofit parent/teacher organization, which includes all parents, legal guardians and staff at Ettrick Elementary School.

The PTO's mission is to promote open communication and understanding between parents and staff of the Ettrick Elementary School. Our efforts serve to enhance and maximize the education of every child while aiding them in achieving their highest potential.

The PTO sponsors assistance to teachers in classroom setting, holds fund-raisers for supplemental educational materials and experiences, supports school and family social interaction, and provides a non-biased forum for sharing information on issues that impact our children.

It is our belief that the team effort of a parent teacher organization offers the best possible learning environment for our children.

General Ettrick Elementary PTO meetings are held bi-monthly during the school year. All parents and guardians of Ettrick Elementary students and all staff at Ettrick Elementary School are invited and encouraged to attend the general PTO meetings.

All PTO meetings are posted on the District Calendar (see tab at the top of this window) and held at 6:30 pm. We will try to provide child care during those meetings.

Each year the PTO sponsors some money making projects. We have sold cookie dough, pizzas, and candles. We hold a basket auction at G-E-T Showcase. All of these funds have helped us to make some major purchases and sponsor events for our school. With the help of all parents, these projects can be very successful.
