The Mission of the PTO
is to promote a positive environment for students at Conard High School by providing a forum for open communication between parents, teachers and school administrators and by funding educational programs for the school community.
If you haven't had the chance yet to pay your PTO dues...
($20 or whatever amount makes sense for your family)
The Conard PTO Board would like thank those families who have contributed. Your generosity will allow us to continue sponsoring enriching student-centered events and activities.

- What is Indigenous People’s Day?
- Why is it celebrated?
- How is it celebrated around the world?
- What phrases do we use, which originated from Indigenous groups?
