Would you like to really get involved with the PTO? Why not serve on the Board? Board members serve a one or two year term, and are crucial to the operations of the PTO. It's a great way to meet people, be a part of positive change at our school, and have fun!

Board Positions for the 2024-2025 school year are filled.

WHO CAN ATTEND A PTO MEETING?

All members are encouraged to attend.  By attending PTO meetings, you have an opportunity to make a difference in your child's academic life, become better informed about Anchor Pointe Elementary, and make greater connections with the teachers and parents in our community.  

PTO Meetings are the best place to gain better knowledge about: policy updates, new initiatives, events, budget, and other changes. If you have questions about your student's educational experience, this is the best way to find answers.

Meetings occur on the second Tuesday of every month and they begin at 6:30PM.  The meetings take place in the Anchor Pointe Elementary Library. 

The PTO Board also meets regularly to address any administrative issues.

WHAT DO YOU DISCUSS AT THE GENERAL MEETINGS?

The PTO Board provides a report to address updates that have happened since the last meeting, along with sharing information about topics relevant to the school and PTO.  The Treasurer will provide a financial report to review the income and expenses since the last meeting.  Mr. Boyes provides an update as well.  PTO members are able to bring new ideas and topics to the meeting to discuss amongst the group.
