Parent-Teacher Organization

We are beyond fortunate to have a caring and engaged Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) here at Unity Charter School. The mission of our PTO is to provide support to teachers and students, and to promote sustainability initiatives in our school and community. To drive that mission, the PTO holds fundraisers for supplemental educational materials and experiences, while promoting school-family social interaction.

We are always looking for volunteers and the PTO is a great way to get involved.  Make sure to sign up to receive the monthly PTO Newsletter located here:  http://eepurl.com/hKP845  

PTO responsibilities include:

  • Creating a forum for the exchange of ideas within the school community

  • Providing educational programs and forums for parents

  • Organizing and promoting projects beneficial to the Unity Charter Community at large

Meetings & Social Media!

  • All PTO general meetings will be held via Zoom beginning at 7 pm on the first Tuesday of each month unless otherwise noted.  Join in as you can.  All commUnity members (parents, guardians, teachers, and students) are welcome and encouraged to attend.  Your voice matters, mark your calendars.

  • Follow us on social media:

Class Money / Donations

  • In lieu of a membership fee, the Parent Teacher Organization at Unity Charter School relies on yearly donations from every family called ‘class money’

  • These monies are used primarily to fund gifts and experiences for the teachers and staff during the holidays, Teacher Appreciation Week, and as end-of-year gifts.  Additionally, many of our sponsored family fun events require additional funding, as we attempt to keep ticket and participation fees as low as possible.

  • We ask every family to donate to the “class money” fund in whatever way is feasible.  Keep in mind that donating now will save you time, every, and money from buying individual gifts at a later date.
