PTO

Throughout the year, we partner with local restaurants to host a fundraising night. Take the night off from cooking, meet other families and dine-in, or take advantage f the take-out options and enjoy dinner at home. 

Proceeds of the evening's sales go to the school!

Our annual Book Fair will be virtual again this year. The book fair is scheduled for November 1 - 13th. We are looking for volunteers willing to work with Scholastic to obtain shopping links and marketing material, as well as help advertise leading up to, and during the fair. We are also asking for additional volunteers who are willing to help if the need arises. 

Our teachers are amazing! We need more than one week to show our appreciation. We'd like to bless our teachers with a small gift to celebrate each season and express our love and appreciation for all they do. We are looking for volunteers to help brainstorm and execute this fun endeavor. 

Wish gifts in Wash Park is helping us host a Holiday Shopping Event on December 1. Proceeds of sales will be donated back to the school. If you, or someone you know, has a shop that may want to participate in an additional shopping event, please let us know! 

Parent teacher conferences will be held twice a year - November 19 & March 4 

The PTO will provide a catered lunch for teachers and staff to give them the much needed energy they need on these long days. We are looking for volunteers to donate drinks and desserts, as well as set-up and clean up crews. 

Parent teacher conferences take place over 1-2 weeks during the Fall and the Spring. We would like to bless our teachers with a GrubHub gift card so that they can get a meal when they need it. We are looking for volunteers to help execute and deliver gift cards. 

We are looking for people with the Christmas spirit to spread some holiday cheer! Volunteer opportunities include...

1. Decorating

2. Donating and setting up treats for the staff 

3. Helping to organize our teacher luncheon, including donating drinks and desserts

The PTO also helps organize "Christmas Purse" - a collection of monetary donations that will be distributed to the SJ staff prior to Christmas break. 

This fun evening provides us with the opportunity to spend time with other families in our community and help support our school. We are looking for volunteers with a knack for event planning to help secure a venue, work with caterers, and assist in organizing a live auction and paddle raise. 

Teacher appreciation week is May 2-6, 2022. This is a week filled with fun, food, and festivities to bless the entire staff at St. John's! We are looking for volunteers to help organize daily gifts and assist with the Staff Appreciation Luncheon. We would love one volunteer from K-8 and one for the ELC to be a point of contact for all of the volunteers.
