PTO Needs your voice!

PTO runs on people power from the Wildcat community.  There are many ways to participate, and the most impactful way is to hold a role that helps shape the direction of the PTO.  Below are the key positions open for the 2024-2025 school year.  

 

2024-2025 Board Positions

 


co-VP Of Fundraising

Do you like to plan events that also raise money? Do you have the ability to engage people and maybe sell them on the value of something?  The PTO must raise its annual budget each year and we need new and fresh ideas on how to engage our community, demonstrate the PTO's value and raise money to support our programs, advocacy and more.  This is a critical role in the PTO and the pandemic has reshaped how the Whittier PTO traditionally fundraises.   You will support and recruit for chairs to lead various events throughout the year. 

 

Time Commitment - 2-3 Hours per month

co-VP Of Diversity

Are you interested in ensuring all voices at Whittier are represented?  We are in need of a board member to represent managed cultural events.  We have the plan, and will look to have parents lead each month but need a board member to keep us looped in on activities.

 

Time Commitment - 2-3 Hours per month

co-VP of Green Initiatives 

Do you have a passion for gardening and sustainability?  We are in need of a board member to coordinate community activities to maintain and flourish the Greenleaf Garden and field trees.  Lead the the Garden Team to host service days where students and families are invited to tend to the garden, support in-classroom education and "garden days," coordinate a watering schedule, leverage grants to support garden initiatives.  This is also a very important year as we are in desperate need of replacing our planter beds and giving the Greenleaf Garden a small makeover.    

 

Time Commitment - 2-3 hours per month during gardening season
