What is the Knoles Elementary PTO

The Knoles PTO is a group of parents and staff who meet to discuss what is happening at our school, in the school district and how we can help — such as volunteering, fundraising and offering ideas on ways to provide a better environment for our children's education.

The purpose of the PTO is to support and promote the educational and social welfare of the children of Knoles Elementary School and to promote understanding among parents, teachers, community members and school officials.
