PTO Board Members

PTO Board members are volunteers who have committed to serving for at least 1 school year (treasurer position commits to 2 years). Board members are also responsible for chairing at least one event. Nominations for board positions are submitted in late spring and a vote is held near the end of each school year.

NOW ACCEPTIING NOMINATIONS FOR PTO EXECUTIVE BOARD 2024/2025

Northwest PTO is looking to fill positions on the executive board for the 2024-2025 school year. "PTO" stands for "Parent Teacher Organization" and we welcome any parents or guardians of Northwest Elementary students to get involved! While anyone can volunteer, PTO Board members are volunteers who commit to serving for at least 1 school year (the treasurer position commits to 2 years). Board members are also responsible for co-chairing at least one event per school year. 

NOTE: the Treasurer position is not currently open for the 2024/2025 school year. All other positions are available.

If you are interested or would like to nominate someone who you think would be a great candidate, please fill out a nomination form NO LATER THAN TUESDAY APRIL 16. A member of the Nominating Committee will contact all nominees. The elections will be held at the April 23, 2024 PTO meeting.  Please contact a current PTO board member or a nominating committee member with any questions you have about the offices and process.
