About PTO

The PTO is made up of parent volunteers who come together to raise money for the children of Houghton Elementary School.

Our purpose is to aid the children of Houghton Elementary School by providing support for their educational and cultural needs and to promote open communication between the administration, teachers and parents. The PTO provides personnel, support, services and funds necessary for accomplishing these goals. This includes funding classroom enrichment programs, teacher mini grants, teacher resource funds and family fun nights. The PTO relies completely on the fundraising that is done throughout the school year to provide the necessary funds.

The best way to become involved with the PTO is to attend the meetings, which are held the second Tuesday of every month at 7:00 p.m. in the Houghton Library.

All members present at a meeting are eligible to make a motion and to vote, excluding the Principal and Assistant Principal.
