PTO
Mission
The PTO connects the efforts and donations of our parents and community with the needs of our students, teachers, and school to improve the environment in which our students learn. We support our school so our children can thrive!
You do not have to do anything to join. You are automatically a member by having a child that attends Pflugerville Elementary School.

Spirit Nights
We hope to host a number of spirit nights this year. Spirit Nights are scheduled evenings where we try to get as many people as possible to eat at a local restaurant. The restaurant then provides PES with a percentage of their profits. This is a great way to build community connections and raise money for our kids.
Sign up to receive emails from us to learn about upcoming Spirit Nights.
Parent Interest Groups
Interest groups are subsets of volunteers who might be interested in different types of volunteering.
Los grupos de interés son subconjuntos de voluntarios que podrían estar interesados en diferentes tipos de voluntariado.
Baked Goods - we have a number of events where we will need baked goods, including Veteran's Day (Nov), Deserving Desserts (Nov), Staff Holiday Luncheon (Dec)
Productos horneados: tenemos una serie de eventos en los que necesitaremos productos horneados, incluido el Día de los Veteranos (Noviembre), Postres merecedores (Noviembre), Almuerzo festivo del personal (Diciembre)
Fundraising - we'll run a Box Top drive in March, and need help coordinating, collecting, and managing the tech side
Recaudación de fondos: realizaremos una colecta de Box Top en Marzo y necesitamos ayuda para coordinar, recolectar y administrar el aspecto tecnológico.
Campus Beautification - We hope to organize a number of days to make our PES campus more beautiful, such as touching up the gardens and landscaping or organizing some of the activity closets
Embellecimiento del campus: esperamos organizar varios días para embellecer nuestro campus de PES, como retocar los jardines y el paisajismo u organizar algunos de los armarios de actividades.
Development - for our Pfall Pfest (Oct) and Spring Pfling (April), we'd like to reach out to our local community for silent auction donations as well as bring back spirit nights at local restaurants.
Desarrollo: para nuestro Pfall Pfest (Octubre) y Spring Pfling (Abril), nos gustaría comunicarnos con nuestra comunidad local para obtener donaciones de subastas silenciosas, así como para traer de vuelta las noches de espíritu en los restaurantes locales.
Events - both PTO and PES staff and teachers will hold events during the year where we need parents to sell tickets, run booths, and participate in other events. We will give plenty of notice for the events
Eventos: tanto el personal como los maestros de PTO y PES realizarán eventos durante el año en los que necesitamos que los padres vendan boletos, operen puestos y participen en otros eventos. Daremos suficiente aviso de los eventos.
School Board - we anticipate a number of important issues coming up at the 23-24 school board, and would like at least one representative of PES to be able to attend each meeting and communicate information back to the school. While school board meetings are virtual, a lot of information is lost, so ideally you would be able to attend in person.
Junta Escolar: anticipamos una serie de problemas importantes que se presentarán en la junta escolar 23-24 y nos gustaría que al menos un representante de PES pueda asistir a cada reunión y comunicar la información a la escuela. Si bien las reuniones de la junta escolar son virtuales, se pierde mucha información, por lo que lo ideal sería que pudiera asistir en persona.
Social - we desperately need someone who is regularly on social media to communicate about events on our Facebook and Instagram accounts
Social: necesitamos desesperadamente a alguien que esté regularmente en las redes sociales para comunicarnos sobre eventos en nuestras cuentas de Facebook e Instagram.
Yearbook - this will involve taking pictures at events and working with our publisher to create memories for the kids!
Anuario: ¡esto implicará tomar fotografías en eventos y trabajar con nuestro editor para crear recuerdos para los niños!
