Working Together
The Helen Keller PTO is dedicated to making our school the very best it can be. During the year, the PTO sponsors a variety of assemblies and other activities that help enrich the school day. Money for these programs are raised through Market Day and other fundraisers during the year.

Please support Helen Keller School through our upcoming fundraisers. Last year, we were able to sponsor four assemblies for our students, an ice skating party, pizza lunches with our Principal, Springfest, Christmas stockings and cookies, assignment notebooks, and much more. All of this was possible thanks to the generosity of parents.

Please remember, everyone is very welcome to attend our PTO meetings. We appreciate the help we have received from so many great volunteers and we look forward to meeting new parents. The dates and times of our meetings will be posted on the monthly school calendars that your child will bring home. We're looking forward to a great year!
