Parent Teacher Association-PTO

Who:

We are parents and staff committed to our Liverpool Community.  We are your neighbors, your children’s teachers, and administrators.  The Central Quadrant PTO is composed of PTO's from the three schools (Elmcrest Elementary, Morgan Road Elementary and Morgan Road Middle). The quadrant runs events incorporating the three schools several times a school year. 

Elmcrest Elementary PTO operates under the larger umbrella of the Central Quadrant PTO as well as independently to create experiences tailored to our K-2 students and their families.  We are an integral part of your EE Family!

What:

The Parent Teacher Organization plays a vital role in your child’s school experience.  The PTO helps fund school field trips, author visits, playground builds and extra-curricular experiences. We provide fun family events to build our school community and purpose. We are a group of dedicated volunteers eager to help all children and families in our community.

Why:

We believe in the power of school as a community center and pillar. We value our students, our staff and faculty, and our families and are intentional in our support of Elmcrest Elementary.

Learn More: Meetings are held monthly on Tuesdays from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m at Elmcrest Elementary and virtually through Google Meet. 

Get Involved

Event Volunteers

We are nothing without our volunteers.  There are a million ways to help!  Event volunteers are people who would like to donate an hour or two of their time on occasion. You show up at an allotted time for a specific task or duty to help an event run smoothly. Event volunteers give what they can when they can.  It’s a great way for a busy family to stay engaged with your school community without overcommitting yourself!

Committees

Some of our larger events (Trunk or Treat, Craft Fair, Multicultural Night, Walk-a-thon, Garden beautification projects, etc.) run on committees.  A volunteer for a committee helps plan and organize the event and coordinate volunteers.  Committees require a slightly larger time commitment than event volunteering and oftentimes require between 5-10 hours of time over the course of the event planning and execution process.  Committees are a great way to showcase your strengths and passions and meet new people.

Fundraising

Fundraising is an integral part of the work we do as a PTO so that we can provide great experiences for our students and families.  Many fundraisers need volunteers on the back end to help plan, organize, order, collect and distribute. Fundraising volunteers often complete the “legwork” from home
