The PTO at Jackson is a registered non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that supports various enrichment programs including the art, dance, and music programs, school garden, academic programs used for math/ language arts/ science, technology upgrades, supplies, campus improvement projects and more. The PTO also hosts a variety of fun events throughout the year to help strengthen and maintain our won
derful community. The money that we raise with the help of our community and Business Sponsors each year is critical to being able to continue to fund these amazing initiatives and programs that benefit our over 500 students. Jackson's PTO is a group of parents, teachers and staff who come together for the purpose of helping Jackson students succeed. We are all in it for the kids! To us, this success is achieved by having a well-rounded educational experience. We want our kids to fall in love with learning by being exposed to every nook and cranny of their curriculum as well as opportunities to pursue the things they like best. We all know that public education has been thrown some challenges lately. State funding isn't what it used to be and the new Common Core testing standards are requiring even more of our teachers. Jackson's staff are nothing short of amazing at stretching the resources they have, but so much of what our kids love about school no longer simply 'comes with school'. THAT'S WHERE WE COME IN! The Jackson PTO works throughout the year to raise the money and support needed to add depth and dimension to every curricular platform at Jackson. This includes Math, Language Arts, Music, Science, Technology, Fine and Performing Arts, Physical Education and more! We'd love to connect with you and invite you to join us in the ways that excite you the most. We can do this together! It's all for the kids. Sincerely,
The Jackson PTO Board
