FISKE PTO WELCOME

We are so glad to see our friends who are returning and happy to meet our new families!  

The PTO has a number of events planned for the school year and look forward to your support to make them happen.  Please consider joining our Board, or one of our committees to run an event or program.  The PTO could not provide the school programs, events, and grants without your generous donations and countless volunteer hours.  

We are a very fortunate community who comes together for our school.  Please note that our bi-annual Evening (adult-only) Fundraiser - the Fiske Frost - is scheduled for Friday, March 27, 2020!  Please mark your calendars!
