About
What Does The PTSO Do?
We enrich our middle school through active family involvement, strong staff support, and positive experiences for every student.
Classroom grants
Teachers apply for funding the district budget doesn't cover — books, lab supplies, flexible seating, field trip scholarships. Every approved grant is recorded and reported at general meetings.
Student experiences
Spirit weeks, grade-level mixers, the 8th grade celebration, and school-wide assemblies. Events are planned by parent committees, not by the school office.
Staff appreciation
Breakfasts, conference-night dinners, and end-of-year thank-yous for every teacher, paraeducator, custodian, and office staff member in the building.
A voice for families
Monthly general meetings are open to all. Administration attends, answers questions on the record, and families vote on how PTSO funds are spent.
