The Laurel Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is an informal, organized partnership of parents, teachers, and administrators dedicated to the betterment of our school. Our primary focuses are connecting with our community, organizing events and fundraisers, and supporting our dedicated staff. All funds raised throughout the year are invested back into the school.
We are led by a group of board members and supported by many volunteers who donate their time and energy to help our events succeed. If you have any questions about the PTO, please feel free to contact us at laurellynxpto@gmail.com. We’d love to hear from you!
