Description

The Grove Junior High Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is a non-profit organization established for the purpose of enhancing our students' educational, social, and extracurricular experiences. We are a partnership of parents, teachers, and administrators dedicated to making a difference through volunteerism, community involvement, and fundraising efforts for our children.  Every year our PTO supports meaningful causes in our school. In the past with our help of fundraising, we have been able to provide financial assistance for students to participate in school field trips who might not normally be able to attend. The PTO has provided books for the library and for teachers for their classroom. We contribute towards cultural events throughout the school year like our El Dia de los Muertos event.  Annually the PTO donates money towards the fine arts for various events for students to garner a love for the arts through theater and music. These are just some of the ways we are actively involved in enhancing all students experiences at Grove. This current school year finds our PTO fundraising to provide a refillable water fountain in the school as well as to continue our other efforts.     


It is difficult for the PTO to support this worthwhile school project without help from people like you.  I am writing to invite your business to donate an item or gift certificate for our 1st Annual Winter Raffle Fundraiser we will be holding on February 12th and 13th, 2020.  We welcome donations of any size and type. Our raffle will take place during Winter Conferences in February 2020. Students and families attend these conferences thus we expect our raffle to be a huge success.
