P.T.O. provides volunteers and raises money for all the extra-curricular and cultural arts programs at Ehrhardt Elementary School. Funds are also provided for instructional consumables, teacher classroom funds and classroom holiday parties.
Volunteering your time is both fun and rewarding! There is a job waiting for every one. Even if you have only a few extra minutes each month, our Volunteer Coordinator can help you find a volunteer job that you will enjoy. Remember, not all jobs require spending time at school. Volunteering is a great way to get to know the school, the faculty and other parents; and your children will love seeing you up at school!
This year, PTO has an exciting time planned. Your dues and other financial support help make these programs possible:
• Camp Read-A-Lot
• Teacher Classroom Funds
• Class Parties ~ Holiday and Spring

General Mills Box Tops for Education & Campbell's Soup Labels programs are free, easy ways to raise money for our school. Just clip the box tops and labels and send to school. The school earns money for each label that is returned. There is a collection box for each type of label. Look for the handout with the listing of all eligible brand names.
We look forward to another great year at Ehrhardt!
