MISSION STATEMENT Mission Statement: The objective of this Parent Teacher Organization shall be to promote unity between the home, school, parents/guardians, teachers, and administrators in order to educate and develop each child to the fullest of his/her potential. Our PTO plays an important role in the excellence of Winslow School #3. Its successful yearly fundraisers enable the children to enjoy enriching assemblies, educational field trips and tokens of appreciation throughout the year. The PTO has purchased many items which the children benefit from including playground equipment, computers and software, audiovisual equipment, gym equipment, new sound system for the All Purpose Room and new kitchen for the Teachers Lounge which the students have been able to use for nutrition lessons. The PTO purchased the School #3 sign in front of our school, which informs those passing by of our important news. General Mills Box Tops for Education are collected for equipment and items for our school. The PTO is also sponsoring the Reading Incentive Program prizes, Scholastic News and agendas for the 3rd grade students. Throughout the year, the PTO organizes and runs the Holiday Shop, book fairs, and other events for the convenience and enjoyment of the students. We look forward to initiating new Spirit Wear tee shirts with the school logo on them this year to encourage our students to take pride in our school. The PTO oversees refreshments for school events, breakfast for the staff on opening day and a luncheon for the teachers for Teacher Appreciation Week. As a parent or guardian of a School #3 student, for a small fee of $3 per family (proceeds being used to fund a new swing set) you can be a part of the PTO and supporter of our students’ education. Please contact our school or check our school calendar on this web site for the next PTO meeting and join us. We have many fun and exciting things planned for this school year and we need your help to make them successful and enjoyable for our children. |
