Special requests for non-budgeted items may be submitted to the PTO via email before an upcoming PTO meeting. Please send requests to jewett.pto@gmail.com in advance.
The Executive Board will review the request to determine fund availability and ensure it aligns with all expense policies before the meeting. At the meeting, the requester will present the item and explain the reason for the request.
A vote on the funding approval will be conducted via a survey sent to all parents, requiring a two-thirds majority for approval.
Examples of special requests include (but are not limited to):
A shed for equipment storage
PE equipment for all grade levels
A photo printer for a specific grade level
A Conex storage container for Maker’s Lab supplies
Any other item that benefits an entire grade level or the whole school
The next PTO meeting will be in May, during which special requests will be considered.
