Last Few Months in Review

As we approach the start of the New Year in a couple of weeks, the PFO is getting ready to prepare for all things seniors and Teacher Appreciation Week.

Since the start of the 2023-2024 school year, the PFO has been able to support many initiatives in the few short months school has been in session.

We recreated our PFO display in the front foyer to Welcome Back our Warriors and represent all 10 trades.

The PFO has been able to provide $50 teacher reimbursements to many faculty members who have provided forms and receipts for the purchases they made for their classrooms.

We purchased a new speaker for the gym since the gym sound system has not been working over the last few years and the new speaker can be used for P.E. classes, sporting events, etc. Dr. Beckham was also able to use it at the November Open House.

The PFO was able to donate to the Senior Breakfast in September and to the Glow Dance in November. We took up a collection for families in need for the Thanksgiving holiday. Thank you again to all who have donated to the PFO over the last few months to help us make donations!

We recently purchased 30 large Home Depot storage bins and gifted to the Student Council to house their items and protect them for many years to come.

And the PFO has been able to show our gratitude and appreciation to our faculty and staff over the months; providing them with wellness goodie bags, Bundtinis, doughnuts, appreciation gifts and a continuous supply of vitamin C lollipops (the container was just replenished last week).

We held a PFO meeting in September and October and we attended the Welcome Freshmen Night in October and the Open House in November. We also conducted a Restaurant Night at Chipotle in October and at Luigi's in November - thank you to everyone who participated! One PFO member has participated in the NAC meetings in the spring and fall (thank you Dr. Beckham for the invite to attend!).

Thank you for considering donating to the PFO! If you do make a donation, please note if you would like your donation to be used towards Teacher Appreciation Week, Senior items, or the general fund. You can make a donation via Venmo Here or make your check out to JMWT PFO and leave it in the main office.

Please see other ways below the PFO supports our students, faculty and school.

Winter Cleaning?

Please drop off all of our old clothes and textile items to the JMWT textile bins and help raise funds for our school! Spread the word!

Our bins have brought in over $1,000 for just being there!

The bins are located at the front entrance of the school near Cubeta Field for convenient drop off.

We accept all sorts of used textiles (clothes, sheets, shoes, bags, stuffed animals, curtains, drapes and throw pillows). Our bins prevent discarded items becoming part of landfills and gives them a second life. You can view more info here

You will be supporting J.M. Wright Technical High School plus this helps our environment! ♻
