PTO
Thank you for your interest in Susan Lindgren PTO! Please visit the PTO website to learn more & get the latest information!
Who We Are
The mission of the Susan Lindgren Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is to fund and organize activities to enrich the education of students and strengthen the school community. We also serve as a place for parents, students, teachers, administrators, and community groups to raise issues, share information, and learn more about topics that support our children’s education. All PTO events and activities are made possible because Susan Lindgren parents/guardians find time to volunteer in a variety of ways. Please join us!
Fundraising and Events
The PTO fundraises to support enrichment activities & events for students at NO cost to families, including:
- Our schoolyard garden
- Field trips & buses
- Festival of Nations (new in 2022-23!)
- Student Showcase Fair
- June Jamboree
- Yearbooks
- Online student directory
- And so much more!
The goal for this year’s SLP Read$, our major annual fundraiser, is $50,000. We love this fundraiser because families don’t have to sell anything, kids are reading, and the PTO receives 100% of the proceeds, which in turn ensures free, equitable access to PTO sponsored events and activities for ALL students. We also participate in other community giving programs such as Box Tops for Education, Parkway Pizza Night on the 3rd Wed of every month, and Amazon Smile. Raising this money means that we can make all our events free to attend and there is no membership fee to be involved in PTO.
PTO Meetings
All parents, guardians, and teachers are welcome and encouraged to attend PTO meetings. It is a great way to learn more about what is happening in the school community and to connect with other parents. We often have a guest speaker from the SLP community who talks about something relevant to our students or school. Free childcare and a pizza dinner is provided for all meetings. Our meetings are held in the Susan Lindgren Media Center from 6:15–7:45 p.m. 2022-23 Meeting Dates are:
- Tuesday, September 20, 2022
- Tuesday, November 15, 2022
- Tuesday, January 17, 2023
- Tuesday, March 14, 2023
- Tuesday, May 16, 2023
