Mission Statement

The Mission of the Lake Forest Elementary School Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) is to promote communication, understanding and cooperation among students, faculty, parents, school board and community; to increase educational opportunities for students by raising funds to support PTO programs and services; and to elect volunteer parent representatives to coordinate these programs and services.

"Volunteers DO Make a Difference"

A volunteer is an extra pair of hands, an extra measure of personal warmth, a valuable "special" resource for classroom enrichment, and a bridge between the school and the community.

Membership:

  • Every parent, family member and school employee is an automatic member of our PTO. 
  • Parents contribute volunteer hours worth over $100,000 per year.

Pledging:

Why Pledge?

Lake Forest Elementary students have long enjoyed academic excellence.  While academic needs and expectations remain high, funds to provide them are not always available.  Since public school funding is limited by local district and state budgets, additional educational enhancements are needed.

Lake Forest Elementary has a pledging program, which give parents the opportunity to invest in the success of our school.  This program allows parents to make a direct dollar-for-dollar contribution to school programs and services.  There is no middle-man, or fundraising company to share the profit.  One hundred percent of your donation goes to the school.  Please take the time to read through this brochure and consider if this type of donation is right for you.
