PTO News & Events

St. Teresa's Parent Teacher Organization is a non for profit volunteer organization. Our members are parents and teachers who volunteer to serve. By volunteering, we are teaching our children the importance of serving in our school community.

As PTO members we:
* raise money to support our educational projects
* assist our school in their fundraising efforts
* create a community for our school families
* work with faculty, staff and administration to create a positive environment for our children


Our Parent Teacher Organization hosts three major, annual fundraising events. The QSP Magazine Drive, our famous Holly Berry Market, and our signature spring event, the Nun Run, all provide financing for classroom and program development. Our PTO also coordinates and supports various activities that enrich our school community, like Grandparents' Day, Fall Festival, Book Fairs, and Field Day.

Thank you for volunteering in our school, and at all of the special events.

Thank you for supporting all of our fundraising efforts and your 'in kind' donations.

We couldn't have done it without you!
