About PTCO

PTCO plays an important role at the Clarke Schools, with its aim to bring teachers, parents and members of the community together in support of the school and its students.

They promote not just school spirit, but parent and community involvement in the school by way of sponsoring different events, fundraisers and projects throughout the school year.

Each year, the PTCO raises funds to assist with the annual school carnival, a popular event that provides games, prizes and concessions for students and families; hosting one or two family movie nights, allowing families a fun night out with their children for a meal and a movie; providing meals or small gifts to teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week and sending preschool through fifth grade students on a field trip each year.

The events that the PTCO puts on can cost anywhere from $300 for supplies to $2,000+ per grade for admission and bussing of field trips.

The PTCO meets at 4:30 p.m. the first Monday of each month in the elementary conference room; meetings last about an hour. For those interested in PTCO but unable to attend regular meetings, reach out to find other ways you can help at: ptco@clarkecsd.org. The PTCO is always looking for more volunteers to help with the planning and execution of events.
