Reminder: PTO Dues & Staff Gifts

PTO DUES

Thank you to everyone who has already contributed to the PTO Dues and Staff Gift Fund. If you have not had a chance to contribute yet, we encourage you to do so by clicking the link below. We could not make our school such a special place for our children, staff and community without your support!

Please help us by paying your dues so we can continue to support the school. This is a ONE TIME DUES collection for the entire year. We are asking for a minimum donation of $60 per child.

STAFF GIFT FUND

Staff gift donations allow us to maintain classroom teacher gifts at a similar level as they have received in the past and provide an appropriate gift for all staff throughout the building. Please note that we will not be asking for additional gift funds for teacher and staff gifts. We are asking for a minimum donation of $60 per child.


Please note, the 4th Grade collection request will be made later in the school year, around the first week of January. 

Payment can be made directly on the PTO website or by check or cash. Checks should be made payable to Greeley School PTO and all checks and cash can be turned into our PTO mailbox in the front office at Greeley School. For payment questions, please reach out to Grith Funk Greeley PTO Treasurer: grithfunk@gmail.com

We are grateful to all of you for your contributions!

Membership Toolkit

Please ensure that all of your children attending Greeley this school year are listed on your family’s account page within Membership Toolkit, and that all information is up to date. This is especially important if you have an incoming kindergartener, as they will need to be added to Membership Toolkit.

Membership Toolkit serves as the main hub for communication for the year ahead. You will be able to access important information, see upcoming events, sign up to volunteer and much more - all in one place!
