Get to Know the PTO

The Kaufman Elementary PTO is a nonprofit parent/teacher organization whose membership includes all parents, legal guardians and staff at Kaufman Elementary School. The PTO’s mission is to promote open communication and understanding between parents and staff of the Kaufman Elementary School. Our efforts serve to enhance and maximize the education of every child while aiding them in achieving their highest potential. The PTO sponsors assistance to teachers, holds fundraisers for supplemental educational materials and experiences, supports school and family social interaction, and provides a non-biased forum for sharing information on issues that impact our children. It is our belief that the team effort of a parent teacher organization offers the best possible learning environment for our children.
Our Mission

The primary goal of the PTO is to enhance the education and to build a safe and fun community for all children during their time at Kaufman Elementary School. We do this by supporting enrichment during the school day and through community-building events during evenings and on weekends.
