24 - 25 PTO
The PTO is so excited for the opportunities to enhance the lives of our students and staff this year!
The mission of the SMS PTO is to improve the educational experience of students by supporting SMS teachers and administrators. We accomplish this mission by raising funds and encouraging/facilitating parental involvement in our school. The SMS PTO is a 501-c-3 nonprofit organization which does not pay dues to a national PTO organization.
All donations to the SMS PTO are 100% tax deductible and all are used to support the educational programs and facilities of SMS.
