Munson Elementary PTO Nominations & Elections for 2019-2020

We are the Munson Elementary PTO (Parent Teacher Organization). We say "we" because all of us are members of the MPTO. Just by being a parent or guardian of a student here at Munson makes you a part of the MPTO. There are no dues or fees to be in the MPTO—it is Free! We have the very important roll of enhancing and enriching every child's experience at Munson Elementary. We do this through our fundraising, many student and family focused events and by providing curriculum-based assemblies and necessities.

We look forward to getting to know you and to help guide you in your participation in a way that is not only rewarding but that best suits you, your family and your schedule! It is the goal of the MPTO, to ensure that our Parents and Teachers are aware of the activities happening around them to make the experience for our children and teachers a better one. Please consider getting involved with MPTO. We need your support, assistance and ideas to help make this year’s events & programs a success! Nominate yourself or someone else. Please provide bio information below. If you have any questions, please contact Kelly Richards at 440-728-0300. Elections will be held at the MPTO General Meeting on April 24, 2019 at 6:30 pm in the APR. You must submit this form by April 17, 2019 to be added to the ballot. You can email this form to krichards0724@gmail.com or drop it off in the office. Per the Munson by-laws, our Vice President has the first option of becoming President the following year. This is to promote continuity and stability within the MPTO. You can nominate yourself for any position, but we are specifically in need of a Treasurer and Vice President for next year.
