Look for opportunities from companies that give back. Does your company offer matching donations? Search your company and "matching donation" online or reach out to your HR department to see if you could be doubling your donation.
Do you or your family (grandparents, aunts, uncle, etc) shop at Kroger or Amazon? If your answer is yes, then you could be giving back to our school with every purchase. Click below for directions on how to link Washington Woods Elementary PTO charity to your Kroger card and Amazonsmile. With each purchase, these companies will give a portion back to our school.
Being present doesn't always mean being in person. We do offer zoom (virtual) for parents and teachers who are unable to attend meetings in person. Meetings are the number one way to stay informed as to what the schools goals, obstacles, and accomplishments are. They also offer an opportunity to connect and build relationships with others we share so much in common with; the love for our children.
Be Curious.
Lets all grow, together. Questions often go unanswered because they are never asked. We desire is to build a stronger community by engaging our community. Our Parent Teacher Executive Board welcomes questions, ideas, differences, and new friends made along the way. New to our school? Please reach out to Washingtonwoodspto@gmail.com and one of our board members will be happy to schedule a time to chat and answer whatever questions we can.
Be Generous.
Do what you can, when you can. Generosity comes in comes in many forms, not just monetary. When you are unable to participate in a dine out, fundraiser, or event, please encourage others to participate by showing excitement. Share your knowledge of how it benefits our kids! If you are able to participate, do all those same things. Be generous with your words. Word of mouth has shown to be the most successful way of reaching families and reaching our goals.

There is always something to be done. We have a wide range of tasks to meet your desired commitment level. Many hands make light work, and volunteering does not have to be all consuming.
