Dear Parents, Grandparents, Teachers & Staff,
Welcome to the Rogers PTO!! You are a very important part of Rogers’ educational team. It takes an exceptional person to give his or her time and energy to help make our school stronger. Your caring enables us to work better and more productively, and your involvement brings our students extra time and personal contact that are vital to their overall success. For the children of Rogers High, Middle and Elementary Schools to reach their full educational, physical, emotional and social potential requires the commitment and involvement of all the members of the school community: students, teachers, staff, parents, grandparents & guardians.
You are giving our students the powerful message that people care about them, while also teaching them the joy and obligation we all have in giving some of our precious time back to our school and community for worthwhile causes. On Tuesday, September 15, 2009, the Rogers PTO had a meeting which included amending some by-laws and electing officers. By amending the by-laws, our general membership will be allowed to help manage all aspects of the PTO. It is our hope that we as an organization will be able to do more within the school, such as volunteering in the classrooms or offices and doing more for the students, teachers and staff.
Giving our kids the best education possible is an investment in the future of our community and nation. Thank you for recognizing this need and reaching out to help. We are glad you are here and we look forward to working with you for the benefit of our children.
Because we want you to get the most out of the PTO, we want to make sure that everyone is informed. It is our intention to get a newsletter out once a month, so that all are aware of what is going on with your PTO!
The PTO will operate on an annual budget, which will be approved by a PTO membership vote. The money used to sponsor PTO activities is raised through PTO dues and annual fundraising events. We are asking that every family who would like to be a member of the Rogers PTO donate $5.00 per household. Our membership chairman is Cherryl Rice, she can be reached by email cherryl_rice@farm-market.net or at 254-983-9171.
Our next meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, September 29, 2009 at 6:00 pm at the Rogers Middle School Synthesis Lab, please come and join us!! Once again, thank you for helping make a difference in the lives of students at Rogers ISD!
For the success of all,
