The District 65 PTO wants to thank all of you for the support of our organization. The commitment of volunteers, parents, local businesses, teachers, administrators and friends allows the PTO to operate.

Each year, the PTO strives to provide students and their families along with teachers and administrators with necessary funding to enhance learning and foster positive social relationships. During this 2013-2014 school year the PTO has organized and funded many events. Grade level curricular enhancement opportunities have been organized K-8. Rosalind Wiseman was brought in as the collective effort of the PTO, Alliance for Excellence and District 65 to discuss the challenges of pre-teens and teens and how to deal with the social and emotional factors that play into these students’ lives. Science night introduced students to many scientific principles and allowed them to question how and why things work. Lastly, grade level socials foster positive relationships between students and families that provide a supportive network in our community.

The PTO appreciates all of your support and hopes your family has been positively impacted by the funding of the 2013-2014 programs.

Kindly,

Anne StewartPTO, President
