2015-2016 pto events
Below are events which we are planning for the 2015-2016 school year.
The JGMS PTO would needs your help in forming committees of volunteers to help with each event. Ideally, we would like to have at least 1 Teacher, 1 PTO Board Member, and 3 Parents working together on each committee. Some events may require additional volunteers while others could be managed by one or two individuals. In every case, the committees will have the full backing and support of the PTO board and its president. |
1. INTRAMURAL/ EXTRAMURAL SPORTS TEAMS
One of our main focuses is forming extracurricular sports teams. We need committee members help determine the cost of uniforms and equipment, logistics, and feasibility of forming after school football, soccer, and basketball leagues. Initially, the teams can play each other. Eventually moving on to play other schools within our school district. The committee will also help research and suggest funding resources to help with the costs. And of course we need VOLUNTEER COACHES and REFEREES. More info... |
3. ROBOTICS
Another focus of our PTO is to research the possibility of enhancing our existing JGMS Robotics program. Committee will look into other middle/high school robotics programs and assess the costs and feasibility of expanding the current program. Also, research and suggest funding resources to help with the costs. |
10. END OF YEAR 8th GRADE PROMOTIONS
This committee will help with End of Year Promotions Program. These volunteers will help special “moving-on” events for 8th grade students and their families at the end of the school year. Last year’s was successfully spearheaded by our Treasurer Lisa Dunn, committee members will work closely with Lisa Dunn to replicate the memorable event. |
14. NON EVENT FUNDRAISER
Plan and administrate a non-event fundraiser. No selling of overpriced, unattractive wrapping paper that gets shoved in a closet or subscriptions to magazines which go mostly unread, instead just a fund raiser where the community pitches in for a cause which benefits all of our JGMS students. |
