What is the PTO?

The Parent-Teacher Organization is a group of parents and teachers working together to help our school. Anyone can join!

What does the PTO do?
We support teaching, learning, and community at our school by:
• planning fun community and school events
• raising money for extra learning opportunities for our kids

Why?
Kids and schools do better when their parents are involved.

How Can I Be Involved?
-- Come to occasional meetings and offer to help with events like:
• Book sales
• Potluck dinners
• Teacher Appreciation Week
• Family Fun Day
• Fundraising for the 5th Grade Field Trip to Boston
-- Collect Box Tops for Education on various food packages. (Help us raise hundreds of dollars!)
-- "Like" us on Facebook (Riverton School PTO) for helpful updates.

Riverton's staff was spoiled with treats from our parents everyday for Staff Appreciation Week!  Staff was treated to breakfast, cheesecake day and chocolate day and plant day!  Thank you PTO!!  Here is a pic from the flower day!  We love helping everyone grow!!
