Saint Patrick School is proud
to have an active, involved PTO Board that fills the needs of parents and teachers. PTO-sponsored events provide financial
support to school programs, events, activities and classroom items that would otherwise not be funded. PTO also works
diligently to provide informative in-service programs to parents and to serve as a vehicle for better communication between
the school and parents.
Business meetings are held
once a month with just the officers present. General meetings for all Saint Patrick School parents are scheduled throughout
the school year and are open to the public. Free babysitting is provided in the
library.
PTO-sponsored fundraisers are organized
to generate funds that directly benefit the students of Saint Patrick School. Money is also awarded to each
classroom teacher to purchase supplies for his or her room. Field Days and other events are also funded by
money generated by these fundraisers. In an effort to support that mission, there are four PTO fundraisers that take place annually. In the fall, the PTO asks families
to sell Pot o' Gold cards. These are coupon cards worth hundreds of dollars in free goods and services and
are good for one year. In November, holiday raffle calendars go on sale, with drawings throughout the month of
January with daily chances to win cash and prizes. In December, a Kids Go Shopping event is held on campus.
In addition to these special events, PTO also sponsors two Scholastic bookfairs during the fall and spring.
