The Tariffville School Parent Teacher Organization is a group of volunteer parents, teachers and staff who work together to enhance the educational experience for every child at Tariffville School. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Our mission is to promote collaboration, engagement, and support to ensure the best possible educational journey for our students.
How Do We Do This?
Support our Teachers - we provide resources, tools, and support to our amazing teachers.
Foster Community - We organize events and activities that bring families and the school community together, fostering strong relationships. Activities include the Carnival, Family Fun Night, Bingo, and more.
Enrich Learning - We fundraise for educational programs, field trips, and classroom supplies to enhance the learning experience. Last year we provided $3000 to support the 6th grade Camp Jewell trip, $1000 for field trips, and $2600 for cultural performances, amongst other activities.
