PTO

The objectives of Prairie Creek PTO are:

1. To promote the welfare of children and youth,
2. To bring into closer relation the home and school, that parents, and teachers may cooperate in the education of children and youth, and
3. To help provide supplemental resources which enhance or enrich school curricula.

Prairie Creek PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) is a chance for a parent or guardian to be involved and to get acquainted with their child’s school activities and those who care and provide for all the students on a day to day basis. Volunteering members are an important part of making the children’s school year a success. We need parent participation in all activities. Your involvement improves the quality of educational tools we can provide for each student. We encourage all to attend as many of the scheduled meetings as possible.
