Once a month, Parents, teachers, staff coming together to discuss our school and potential experiences our PTO may fund or offer our children. This year’s PTO is making sure that all parents are aware of what we do and the importance of why we do it. You do not have to commit to anything. We will not force you to volunteer or attend meetings. It is all AT-WILL. But as everyone knows, the more opinions and voices, the better ideas that will be brought to the table for discussion.

Q. What is the PTO?

A. The PTO is a group of parents/caregivers, teachers, and administrators who seek to foster close relationships between the home and the school and provide volunteer and financial support for parents and teachers to work cooperatively in the development and education of children at Mitchell Elementary School.

Q. How can I join the PTO?

If you're the caregiver of a Mitchell student, you are already a member! You do not need to do anything to join and are welcome to tune into a meeting, spearhead a committee, or run for the executive board!

Q. When and where are the PTO meetings?

A. The PTO meetings are currently held the fourth Monday of each month at 6:00pm, but the day and time will vary by year. You will be able to find the date and time of each meeting, along with the meeting link in the weekly PTO emails. They are always accessible by Zoom or sometimes in-person at Mitchell. At this time, childcare is not available.

Q. What are some of the benefits of being involved in the PTO?

You will get to meet other parents, have a say on issues that matter to you about the school, and be informed on the latest happenings.

Q. Are there ways I can help without holding a position?

A. Yes! We are always in need of volunteers for events and school functions throughout the year. Those opportunities will be communicated with the school via email, social media, and at the PTO meetings.
