What PTO Does
PTO organizes fundraising to help with the "extras" for our teachers, students and school. Our fundraisers include the spring carnival. Volunteers are needed to make this fundraiser a success.
PTO provides support through fun activities and opportunities for involvement in our students' lives. Many opportunities are available to help at Bryan School. These include volunteering at book fairs, class parties, and helping teachers with various projects. Please consider volunteering whether it is for 30 minutes, a few hours, or helping from home.
We are always open to suggestions and ideas for programs and events.
All of these programs provide money for our school. Send items to school with your child or drop them off at the Bryan Elementary School Office marked PTO fundraiser.
Volunteer Information
Please consider volunteering whether it is for 30 minutes, a few hours, or helping from home. If you would like to serve in any way, please contact the Bryan Elementary School office at 417-448-2060.
Teacher Appreciation--This small committee of volunteers will help organize the Bryan teacher and staff appreciation efforts this school year.
Duties include working within the budget to purchase gifts to recognize the efforts of Bryan teachers and staff, and organizing and communicating with parent volunteers when necessary.
Class Captains--Captains will collect items and monetary donations for the raffle baskets. They will work with the classroom teacher and the officer team. Please let your child's classroom teacher or the PTO officer team know if you would like to be the class captain for your child's class.
