Oak Knoll Elementary School

Parent Teacher Organization

Oak Knoll Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is an organization of parents and teachers at Oak Knoll Elementary School. Our goals are to:

Foster a nurturing and caring environment.
Promote school community where teachers, administrators, and parents do their best work.
Provide and build and better educational environment for our children.

Through membership dues ($5 annually) and various fundraising efforts we strive to provide fun programming and resources to our students and Oak Knoll Elementary. Some of our major projects and initiatives are:

Playground Improvements: Everyday our students play outside and with the new playground structures, we would like to add more interactive aspects to our students' playground including newly paved sidewalk painted with hopscotch & sidewalk art.
Supplies: Our teachers do so much for our students and part of your donations will help ensure that they can continue to provide a welcoming and engaging environment for our students! We want to be able to provide our teachers with new books and supplies for their classrooms!
School Nurse Fund: Providing Non-medical supplies, for example new clothes for students who may be in need- we know accidents in school happen and we want to ensure our students can be comfortable and clean while learning.

The PTO also sponsors many events and programs throughout the year including, but not limited to Fun Day, Teacher Appreciation Week, 4th Grade Farewell programming, Spring and Winter Dances, Ice Cream Social, Dine and Donates, Book Fair, and many more!

Time Commitment

We know that time is something many of us have little of or wish we had more. You can still participate in the PTO as all events, programs, and meetings are voluntary and we appreciate any participation you are able to give. Participation can look like time, but also can be donating items, business services, or funds. It is essential to have parental/guardian involvement in all aspects of our students’ education to truly make a difference.

Remember TEAM--Together Everyone Achieves More. Volunteering doesn't have to mean a huge time commitment. Whatever your time schedule allows, we have a need for you!
