Our year is coming to an end but our duties are not. Just like so many of us are setting plans for our summer, here at the PTO our planning is already well underway for next school year.
Throughout the year we hold events, send home fundraisers, and request your time. Thank you for being the PTO–your efforts, time, and funds have allowed this organization to enrich the experience at Kerr for our students, staff, and families.

- ASK (After School at Kerr)

It’s been a productive and busy year. We’re glad that we were able to share so many memories with you and your family, and we’re looking to making new ones next year.
Our calendar is set for next year. We’ll be sharing it in the fall, but also check out our online calendar as we have started adding dates. There are some areas we are seeking volunteers to step up to organize, and you can find those opportunities here.
We’ll be kicking off the year with our 2nd annual Involvement Fair on August 29th. Right after the Involvement Fair will be our first PTO meeting of the year with special guest Ashley Nestor, Executive Director of Elementary Education and Instruction.
Have a wonderful and safe summer and see you on August 23rd for the first day of school!
