Our Purpose
The PTO’s purpose is to enrich our children’s elementary school experience through support of the teachers, parents, and children. We work to strengthen the Peirce community by hosting events, facilitating communication, volunteering time, and raising funds to support the school’s educational activities. We hope that you will become involved!
Each year, the Peirce PTO sponsors many activities. These include:
Classroom Enrichment,
such as Creative Arts and Sciences programs, Understanding Our Differences, special fifth grade activities, and the Mosaic Literary Magazine;
Support of School Operations,
such as publication of the PinkLink weekly newsletter, school directory, and school handbook; stipends for classroom teachers and specialists to purchase materials for their rooms; and an annual contribution to the library for the purchase of new books;
Community-Building Events,
such as the Back-to-School Picnic, Spring Fair, Speakers series, Moms’ Nights Out; and Respect for Human Differences programming; and,
Capital Improvements,
such as the upgrading of the playground and landscaping, automation of the library card catalogue, and the purchase of technology for the classrooms.
None of this would be possible without the generosity of the families in our community!
