The Cary Junior High PTO can only function with the help of many volunteers.
8th Grade Dance: Held in May and is a final send off before graduation for the 8th graders. Many volunteers are needed to make this a successful night. They help to plan the event, create/send out invitations, decorate, procure donations, decide/acquire the food, set up and clean up.
Concessions: Volunteers are needed to run concessions during home athletic events.
End of Year Treat: Volunteers work with teachers to provide a treat for each grade. This takes place the last couple weeks of school.
Field Trips: The PTO donates $500 each year to each grade for them to go on a field trip.
Fundraising: Volunteers will plan a fundraiser to be held in the fall, this can include collection of fundraising dollars. Those dollars are used to fund PTO events throughout the year and also to assist the junior high in larger purchases.
Teacher reimbursements: The PTO gives each full time teacher $50 to spend on school supplies each year.
School Supply Kits: The chair person will work with a school supply company to set up a school supply kit for parents to purchase each year.
Staff/Bus Driver Appreciation: Volunteers help plan and coordinate food donations to honor teachers and bus drivers throughout the year.
