The media outlets provide updates and opportunities to share ideas for this year. We wish you a great school year!

JFK PTO is about parents, teachers, and administrators working together toward a common goal - creating a better school and a better educational experience for our students. We encourage you to join the PTO and become involved in the activities and events that benefit all of our children. Volunteering doesn’t require a huge commitment. Whatever your schedule and interests, we have a need for you! To achieve our goals, we need ACTIVE participation. Attend PTO meetings to share ideas and connect with other JFK families or simply spend some time in the volunteer room.

Our PTO meetings are held each month in the Conference Room (Room 400). Meetings are open to everyone and are a great way to stay informed! The meetings will be held every 3rd Wednesday of the month at 6:30pm. We want your input, so by all means, please email the PTO board, even if you are not at the meetings, we will take your suggestions and questions to the meetings for you.

A great way to volunteer at your convenience is to come to the school and go the volunteer room. The volunteer room is located in the 500 hall by the library. This room is open to all of our families to stop in and help with various projects for our teachers and aides. This may consist of making copies, laminating, cutting, sorting, etc. The PTO, as well, will need help as it nears the “box top” submission times to trim and bag the “box tops” for shipping.
