Now Collecting Donations for Spring Fling Raffle Baskets
If you are a parent of a student at Coolidge or are on the staff, you are a member of the PTO. We hope to see you at our monthly meetings, and hear your thoughts and opinions, so that we can be sure our actions represent the wishes of the Coolidge community.
Meetings will be held in person as well as on Zoom for this school year. If you would like to help out with the PTO, but you cannot attend our monthly meetings, simply contact us! We’ll put you in touch with our volunteer coordinator, who can help you find a way to participate. If you have an hour you can spare, let us know! If you can make a regular commitment, let us know! We’re happy to have you as a part of our community.
Our first meeting will be held on Tuesday, September 14 from 6:30-7:30 pm in the Coolidge Media Center. (All future meetings will be held on Zoom and In-Person.)
No. PTO volunteers dedicate their time to helping enrich the education of our students. We also coordinate collections, such as Boxtops for Education and Mabel's Labels.
Fundraising is a large and tangible way that the PTO can assist our students. The goal of the PTO is to provide enrichment and support beyond what is provided for in the school’s budget. As such, we must raise money to pay for the services we provide. The actual amount of funds needed each year can vary, and the PTO attempts to provide a variety of fundraiser programs and events that will appeal to all in order to raise those funds. Please note that the PTO does not expect everyone to participate in all the fundraisers because that would be very difficult for many families. If a fundraiser is not to your liking, please consider writing a tax-deductible check to Coolidge PTO. In doing so, 100% of your money will go toward the general fund of the PTO.
PTO and the enrichment committee can always use assistance in finding and arranging enrichment programs for all grade levels. Please attend a PTO meeting or contact PTO at calvincoolidgepto@gmail.com.
