The Mission of the PTO 

We are a non-profit, all-volunteer group committed to enriching our children’s educational experiences at KME and building a vibrant community within our school. We help parents and caregivers stay connected, understand our community’s needs, and foster community spirit; all of which is intended to maximize the experience of our students.  Every parent and guardian of a student enrolled at KME is a member of the PTO.

​

By supporting the PTO, you are supporting KME! You help contribute to fun school events and enrichment programs that not only raise funds, but more importantly engage the students, build moral, and school spirit.

How the PTO operates

The KME PTO is structured as a non-profit, which means that whatever money is raised within a given school year should be used before the school year ends. All students should also be able to benefit from how the funds are spent. In the past, the PTO has not only sponsored fun events like the school dance and extravaganza, but they have also paid for educational resources for teachers/staff, turf to make the playground safer, an outdoor classroom, and many other projects that help make KME the best place to be.

Membership

The KME PTO is a dues-free organization, which means every parent, guardian, and KME staff member is automatically a member. We believe everyone has something valuable to contribute, and we hope you'll find a way to get involved that fits your interests, schedule, and talents. Meetings are held in September, January, and May. We hope you'll mark your calendar and join us! 

​

Whether you're volunteering at an event, lending a hand with our gardening committee, or donating items for Teacher Appreciation Week, every contribution makes a difference. Be sure to check our monthly newsletter for volunteer opportunities and ways to get involved. If you're looking for a bigger role—or just aren't sure where to start—reach out anytime. We'd love to help you get connected!
