Memorial Middle School PTO

The Memorial Middle School PTO would like to welcome all new and returning students and their families back to school!

For those who may not know, the PTO is an organization of parents and teachers of Memorial Middle School.  The PTO’s goal is to foster a nurturing and caring environment that strives for continued parent involvement in helping build a better educational environment for our children.  Through membership dues and fundraising efforts, the PTO is able to donate funds to purchase educational materials and equipment for the school as well as being involved in efforts to help the local community. 

For the PTO to be effective and truly representative of the school, it is essential to have parental involvement from as many parents as possible.  Many working parents feel that they cannot be included in the PTO because they cannot come to every meeting or be at school during the day.  You do not need to make every meeting.  There are many ways you can help.  Whatever your own level of flexibility, Memorial Middle School PTO always appreciates their parent volunteers, as do our teachers and staff.  Keep in mind that by volunteering, you will get to enjoy interacting with the kids, become friends with other parents, meet the faculty and staff and accomplish things that truly make a difference.

You may be wondering just exactly what we do and what we have  accomplished in the last year.  We are proud to tell you that we have done quite a bit.  Some of our achievements include:

     . The donation made to purchase the circulation desk for the library
     .  Contribution made to help purchase the LCD sign in from of the school 
     .  Funded the assemblies for our students
     .  Purchase new computers for the media center
     . Donated books for the library
     . Honor the Staff during Teacher Appreciation Week
     . Run the Book Fair
     . Halloween and Valentine’s Day dances
     . Sponsor the Fall and Spring town wide garage sales
     . Talent show
     . School store
    
Just to name a few. As you can see, we are a busy group.  This is where you can come in.  We need your help and so do your children.  Please consider volunteering, as it really does make a difference in the lives of our children. 
    
Membership is only $5 per family and everyone is welcome. Come and see first hand how the students benefit from so many programs and all of our hard work. Please come along and join us.  Our meetings are held on the first Wednesday of every month at 7:00 in the media center.  The first meeting is September 7th.  This is your PTO and as a member you can help us achieve these goals.  We need your ideas and your energy.

On behalf of the Memorial Middle School PTO we would once again like to extend a warm welcome and best wishes for a successful school year. 

We Need You!

 Thanks so much!
