PTO Welcome to Parents

Link to the PTO page

Dear Parents:

On behalf of the Parent Teacher Organization, I want to welcome you to St. Thomas More Catholic School. 

The PTO supports and promotes the school and its policies and provides a forum for parents and teachers to discuss school policies and activities.  The PTO also provides programs for parent and student enrichment and supports the school financially through fundraising activities.  The 2007-2008 PTO Executive Board and committee chairs are working to ensure that we provide programs addressing each of those functions this year. 

At the first PTO meeting on September 11, 2007, we provided an overview of the school and PTO budgets and the annual fund to outline the financial obligations for which the PTO sponsors fundraising activities.  We are forming a committee of parents to look into other ways to meet those obligations.  We shall provide you with periodic updates. 

On October 17, 2007, the PTO and the School Advisory Council are co-sponsoring a meeting with Mrs. Diane Starkovich, the Archdiocesan Superintendent of Schools, and Mr. Tom Campbell, the Assistant Superintendent.  We will address curriculum issues, including the upcoming revisions to the science, math, and social studies curriculums. 

The Family Connection committee sponsors many fun activities - the kindergarten ice cream social, Skate Night, and Flick on the Field, among others - to give parents and students an opportunity to socialize outside of school. 

STM is a community.  Our success depends on the efforts of all – administrators, teachers, parents, and students – working together.   There are as many ways to get involved as there are individual talents.  From volunteering in the school cafeteria at lunchtime to soliciting donations for the auction, you can play an important part in ensuring the success of STM.  I encourage each of you to do just that - become involved in the PTO to help keep STM strong and vibrant. 

Please do not hesitate to contact me at 404-876-8652 or rfwklw@comcast.net with any questions, comments, or concerns.  I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible during this school year.

Best regards,

Kim Woodland
