A.C. Moore Elementary PTO What does A.C. Moore’s PTO do? Numerous parents volunteer to help with day-to-day activities at ACM. Others give of their time helping with fundraisers or special events. It is the desire of ACM’s PTO to work together to enhance the learning environment at our school. General PTO Membership Meetings and PTO Board Meetings are planned during the school year for all parents and teachers. How can I join the PTO? All you have to do to get involved is complete the PTO Membership/Volunteer Form, and you will be contacted. Donations to PTO are optional. You do not have to join the PTO in order to volunteer for PTO activities. Fundraisers are subject to change from year to year; however, in recent years our students have sold Innisbrook gift-wrap as our major fundraiser. Other fundraisers during the year have included Fall Festival, Spirit Store, Bobcat Bash for Educational Foundation, Penny Wars, and Original Works. What does the PTO do with the funds they raise? All the money we raise goes directly back to the students, teachers, and school. Each year the PTO raises funds that are used to support different events at the school such as the reading incentive events County Fair in the fall and Camp Read Moore in the Spring. The money has also been used to maintain the Secret Garden, appreciate the staff and teachers, and buy extra supplies for each classroom. How is the PTO organized? Each winter the nomination process begins for the officers of PTO. Parents nominate leaders to serve, the nominating committee makes recommendations, and parents are asked to serve on the PTO Board. The slate of officers is presented at the spring PTO meeting, and the officers are elected. The PTO President oversees a group of committees, each headed by a chair or co-chairs. The board is comprised of the PTO President, President -Elect, Secretary, Treasurer, Committee Chairs, a teacher representative, and the principal. “Volunteer: Inspire by Example!” |
