Montvale PTO Welcomes You.

Welcome to any new families this year, and welcome back and thank you to our returning PTO members for your continued support.

The Montvale PTO provides many social and educational school programs, services, and activities; and raises funds throughout the year to purchase school equipment and “wish list” items for both schools that directly benefit our children and that are not covered by the school budget. 

It takes many volunteers, an incredible staff, and a supportive community to make our schools great. Please get involved with the PTO and/or with the Montvale Educational Foundation this year...your involvement makes a difference!

Brenda Esposito & Terry Powell, Montvale PTO Co-Presidents

No one can do everything, but everyone can do something!

Please note our upcoming events.

Concussion Management Program
Tue, May 22, 2012
Start: 12:00 PM
Fieldstone Middle School

The Valley Hospital Sports Institute will provide baseline concussion management testing for Fieldstone Middle School students (12 years of age or older) on Tuesday, May 22, 2012. 

  • Testing will include neuro-cognitive and physical-balance measures. (These tests are non-invasive: They involve a computer-game like assessment and a physical balance assessment.)
  • The test results will be stored on-line at ImPACT (accessible by Valley Hospital Sports Institute) and would then be available, in the event of a concussion, to serve as a baseline for comparison to post-concussion injury test results. 
  • Any student/athlete participant that requests a post-injury test and comparison to baseline would be charged according to the Sports Institute fee schedule for the Concussion Management Program services in effect at that time. You may also request test results for comparison use by an alternative health care provider free of charge.

The testing will take place on May 22, 2012 at Fieldstone Middle School. There will be three sessions available at  4:30 PM, 6:00 PM, and 7:30 PM. A maximum of 25 students can be accommodated at each session (75 students for all three sessions). Testing will take approximately 20 minutes, although an hour is allotted for registration and set-up. The cost of the test is $25 per student.  

If you would like your child tested, FIRST purchase a time slot at montvalepto.com (under items for sale). Slots will be offered on a "first to purchase" basis. THEN complete the parental consent form/participant data form available under the More Info>Forms section of our website, and RETURN to school in an envelope labeled Montvale PTO and "concussion screening" by May 17. No testing will be performed until the parental consent form is signed. Therefore, if you drop your child off for testing, and have not completed the necessary consent forms, you will lose your slot and forfeit the testing fee.

International Day

Memorial students take their "passports" to visit and learn about different countries throughout the day, and stop at the international food court to sample foods from all over the world. It's a wonderful day, and a great chance for parents to get involved. This year, our 8th grade students will serve as country presenters, allowing them to expand their knowledge while sharpening their presentation skills.
