PTO Executive Board Positions for 2020-21
President Elect Open
The PTO is looking for volunteers to join the Executive Board for next year!  Job descriptions are available at  www.arcadiapto.org. It is a great way to get involved and support our amazing teachers!  Contact Linda Schlenker for more information at  advisor@arcadiapto.org or 602-576-3828.
Committee Chair Positions Open for 2020-2021
CLICK HERE FOR THE HISTORY & JOB DESCRIPTION >>

Health Office Assistant - Give our amazing nurses a hand as needed for the health screenings which occur just two times per year. Also help to keep the water and snack supply pantry stocked incase a student needs a little extra when visiting the nurse's office. 

Project Graduation - Help the graduating senior class celebrate their success with a fun filled, exciting evening at Cracker Jax.  It is a wonderful opportunity for the kids to have a great time with their classmates in a safe environment.  Project Grad is an Arcadia tradition that we have had for years so most aspects are already in place, but an event this big needs a chairperson to coordinate everything for the next class.  We are looking for families to pay it forward so senior families can just enjoy graduation. 

Hospitality - Provide refreshments at school functions such as General PTO meetings and Principal Coffees. Commitment is 3-4 times per school year.

If you are available to help out on a committee or would like some additional information please contact Jessica Horonenko at  volunteers@arcadiapto.org.
