About that 100th birthday gift...

Enrichment clubs for students to get involved in; robotics, chess club, Spanish/language club, walking club, LEGO club, sign language club, etc.

Resources for the library and classrooms

A gaga ball pit for the east (large) playground

A basketball hoop for the west (small) playground

Painted games & activity starters on the playground blacktop (a few on both playgrounds)

Appealing ground cover (landscaping) on the far east hill

Exterior trash/recycling receptacle/s

Other (please comment below)

About our PTO...

6. Everyone is invited to join in PTO discussions and planning (second Tuesday of each school month, 6-7pm in the school library with a virtual Teams option) Coming to one meeting doesn't mean you have to come to all meetings. Is there anything that could make PTO involvement more feasible or enticing? (CHOOSE ANY of the following):

More flexible meeting times (my family is busy on Tuesday nights)

More flexible or casual meeting places (Coffee shops, open air, playgrounds, etc.)

More communication about PTO projects and opportunities with signs at drop-off/pick-up

More communication about PTO projects and opportunities through Facebook or other social media

Occasional spirit wear give-aways to reward involvement

I want to help or be involved, but don't know how

I want to help or be involved, but only have a little time to give and don't want to feel pressured to give more time

I don't have time for PTO involvement

I don't have interest in PTO involvement (We get it... this survey is anonymous!)

I don't really understand what PTO is or what PTO does

7. Please type your comments regarding anything related to PTO. There is no word quantity limit, so feel free to expand. Thought starters:
What things could PTO do to further support or include all families? What would help make PTO's events more accessible to all families? Is there anything, in particular, that would make it easier to share your voice or be involved? If you are interested in attending a PTO meeting, what would be an ideal time/place? Is there anything that PTO could do to help families understand our projects more fully? Do you have any ideas you'd like to share with us?

Thanks for your amazing feedback!
