Parent Teacher Organization
(P.T.O.)
December 2006
The goal of the Pardes PTO is to make the Pardes community feel like a second home for every one of our families and to contribute to the improvement and excellence of our school.
Thus far this year, through the wonderful support of our Pardes families, we have already held several successful fundraisers, including the Innisbrook wrapping paper sale, Sabuddy's Dinner Day, and the Borders Book Event. Additionally, the PTO has hosted school-wide picnics, "Coffee Talk" breakfasts, the Chanukah "Stargazing" evening, and the mid-year Teacher Appreciation Luncheon.
Monies that are raised through dues, donations, and fundraisers this year will be used to cover the following:
- Furniture, shelving, and books for the future Pardes library
- Various campus beautification projects, including classroom gardens and mosaic tile art installations
- Monetary gifts for teachers and support staff at mid-year and at year end
Thank you for your on-going support!
