Who We Serve
The PCM Elementary PTO is proud to serve the PCM Elementary Schools including Monroe Elementary and Prairie City Elementary.
Made up of a team of parents and teachers from both elementary schools, the PTO aims to provide resources, funding, and support to all of the staff and students at PCM Elementary.
What We Do
The PCM Elementary PTO is a non-profit, parent-teacher organization who serves and works alongside all families and staff at PCM Elementary School.
The PTO’s mission is to encourage communication, collaboration, and involvement among parents, teachers, support staff, and students at PCM Elementary. We aim to enhance the education and well-being of every child while giving them opportunities to achieve their highest potential.
The PTO aims to serve by
- Providing additional resources, funding, and support for teachers and staff
- Holding fundraisers for supplemental educational materials, programs, tools, and experiences
- Supporting projects which will benefit students at home, in the community, and in school
- Providing opportunities for students, families, and staff to gather and celebrate our communities
- Encouraging and building upon a spirit of collaboration between parents and staff to enhance the school experience for everyone involved (staff, students, families, and community members)
#strongertogether
After years of being divided into two parent groups, in 2022, when elementary students from Monroe started attending Prairie City Elementary for 4th and 5th grade, the two parent groups of the time (the PCE PTO and the Monroe Elementary PTA) decided that we would be #strongertogether if we joined forces to serve ALL students and staff at PCM Elementary equally.
This has resulted in us being able to sponsor more events for both communities, have more people to spread out PTO work, raise more money at some of our biggest fundraisers, and being able make sure that both of our schools are getting equal treatment and attention.
