Grand Avenue Elementary PTO

I want to say a HUGE thank you to some amazing parents to helped make Teacher Appreciation Week @ Grand Ave. Elementary possible!!! From building gifts, to delivering gifts, to setting up breakfasts & lunches, to donating money and candy! Having this kind of support and involvement is what makes a PTO great and function like it’s intended!! Thank you!!

Every teacher needs an emergency stash!! PTO hooked our teachers up with some essentials to get through these last few weeks of school

PTO catered lunch from Alexander Eats for our AMAZING teachers for Teacher Appreciation Week!!! Part of the funds PTO raises goes to things like this to love on the people who love on our kids! If you’d like to be apart of PTO, come to our next meeting on Thursday, May 13 @ 3:30 pm!! We’d LOVE to have you!! We are currently taking nominations for officers for the 2021-22 school year if you would like to serve or if you have someone in mind who would make a great addition to our team, shoot us a message, or fill out the nomination form your kiddo will be bringing home!!
