What is the PTO?

​

The Farine Elementary Parent Teacher Organization is a nonprofit parent teacher
organization (PTO) whose mission is to establish and sustain a close relationship
between the parents, teachers, and students by evolving opportunities & experiences
within the home, school, and community.

 

The PTO provides assistance to teachers, raises funds for educational materials and experiences, advocates school and family social interaction, and provides an unbiased
forum for sharing information on issues that impact our children.
