Foundation
 

The Foundation at PCK is inviting enthusiastic parents, passionate about and interested in, promoting the continued educational advancement of PCK by enhancing the learning environment and upholding a standard of excellence in education, through the development of private resources and charitable donations. 

 

As the primary fundraising organization supporting PCK, The Foundation is an integral part of enriching PCK’s learning environment by providing additional financial support to PCK outside the annual school budget. The Foundation’s purpose is to develop and maintain relationships with parent and community stakeholders, to seek out opportunities for private resources and charitable donations through annual fundraising events, and to collaborate with PCK to determine the allocation of those funds to PCK.

 

The Foundation works closely with the entire PCK staff, community, and school board throughout each school year and has many opportunities for parents and community stakeholders to be involved with the planning and success of building community relationships, the fundraising events, and advance the learning environment of PCK.  Foundation meetings are held the first Wednesday of each month at 8:30 a.m.

 

If you are interested in joining The Foundation at PCK please contact Pam Whitehorn, President, at [email protected].

 

 

Parent Teacher Organization (PTO)
 

PCK's PTO is a parent-volunteer organization that focuses on building our extraordinary PCK community, and supporting our wonderful teachers and staff. The goal of the PTO is to enhance the educational experience by assembling a variety of events outside of the classroom that are entertaining and exciting for our children, parents, and staff, creating a space where all parties can come together and interact. The PTO appreciates your partnership and volunteer time to help build community events such as our annual Fall Festival, Father/Daughter Dance, Mother/Son event, used uniform sale, and many more.

 

By volunteering your time with the PTO you are encouraging further peer engagement outside of the classroom, interacting with other amazing PCK families, and supporting our teachers with various treats and events to show our gratitude and support. The PTO holds evening meetings once per month noted in our school calendar. We invite you to join in and participate - we would love your support and look forward to meeting you!
