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! |
