PTO - Overview

What is the Shlenker PTO?

The Shlenker PTO "Parent Teacher Organization" is a volunteer group of parents, teachers, and administrators working together to create a better school and educational experience for our children.

When does the PTO Meet?

The PTO meetings are held in the PTO room and begin at 8:30 a.m. unless otherwise noted. All PTO Members are welcome to attend.

What Does PTO Do?

The Shlenker PTO supports the school in many different ways. We sponsor several activities and programs that benefit and enrich classroom learning as well as coordinate family and community events. We offer an assortment of fund raising programs throughout the school year so that we can contribute valuable dollars to The Shlenker School’s annual budget. Last year, we contributed $35,000 to the school. The PTO also facilitates and coordinates the annual Book Fair to raise money for the School library.
