Landmark Academy Parent/Teacher Organization (PTO), Friends of Landmark, would like to welcome all new and returning students and their families back to school!

For those who may not know, the PTO is an organization of parents and teachers of Landmark Academy. The PTO’s goal is to create a nurturing and caring environment that strives for continued parent involvement in helping build a better educational environment for our children. We also promote a school community where teachers and administrators can do their best work with the resources we can provide and help make school fun.  Through donations and fundraising efforts, the PTO is able to purchase educational materials and equipment for the school as well as providing activities for the school families and the local community.

For the PTO to be effective and truly represent the school, it is essential to have parental involvement from as many parents as possible. Many working parents feel that they cannot be included in the PTO because they cannot come to every meeting or be on campus during the day. There are endless possibilities in ways you can help. Whatever your own level of flexibility, Landmark Academy PTO always appreciates their parent volunteers, as does our teachers and staff. Keep in mind that by volunteering, you will get to enjoy interacting with the kids, become friends with other parents, and accomplish things that truly make a difference.

Whether you have 30 minutes or a couple of hours, your ideas, your time, and your talents are truly needed. We have many ways in which Moms, Dads, Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents can contribute.  Please consider volunteering, it really does make a difference in the lives of our children!

      PTO Membership is free and everyone is welcome!  As the year progresses and the committees come together, you will be contacted by phone and/or e-mail from committee chairpersons. Come and see first hand how the students benefit from so many programs and all of the hard work. Please come along and join us - this is your PTO and as a member you can help us achieve these goals. We need your ideas and your energy.

                                                                  We need you!

Thanks so much!
