Parent Teacher Organization
Mortensen Elementary has an active PTO. It takes a team of parents who work collaboratively with school staff to create a culture that celebrates and supports our entire community. At Mortensen, the support from neighbors, teachers, and parents is key to our success. So whether your child attends an event or joins a program, know that the PTA is here to make a difference for every child!
All Mortensen parents and staff members are honorary members of the PTO simply by having a student or working at Mortensen, and having families involved is crucial to our success. The Mortensen PTO serves as a valuable link between the school and the community. Together we work to identify and meet the needs of all Mortensen students.
PTO not only raises funds for the school and our teacher's wants/needs but also plans many family and community activities throughout the school year. Meetings take place every month and are open to all parents and community members. PTO will hold brief general meetings for parents before selected events to help keep all parents informed and to give an added opportunity for those who wish to be involved in Mortensen activities. Come join us!
