Every child. One voice.
One hundred years ago Alice McLellan Birney said, "Let us have no more croaking as to what cannot be done; let us see what can be done, and above all see that it is done." That brisk philosophy still drives the PTO today. While the methods may change to make us more responsive to the demands of an electronic era, the underlying principle does not.
Todos los niños. Una sola voz.
Hace
cien años Alice McLellan Birney dijo: "Que no haya más croar de lo que
no se puede hacer, vamos a ver qué se puede hacer, y sobre todo ver que
se haga." Esa filosofía sigue siendo enérgica e impulsa el PTO hoy. Aunque los métodos pueden cambiar para hacernos más sensibles a las demandas de una era electrónica, el principio fundamental no.
Purpose of the PTO
- To promote the welfare of children and youth in home, school, community, and place of worship.
- To raise the standards of home life.
- To secure adequate laws for the care and protection of children and youth.
- To bring into closer relation the home and the school, that parents and teachers may cooperate intelligently in the education of children and youth.
- To develop between educators and the general public such united efforts as will secure for all children and youth the highest advantages in physical, mental, social, and spiritual education.
The Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is committed to increasing parental involvement in support of Flowery Elementary faculty, staff, and students. Research indicates parent support helps to provide the best learning environment possible for students to be academically successful. And we think that's important.
