At the start of each school year, PTO holds a Volunteer Orientation to guide volunteers through things like the copy machine, arriving at the school, room parent duties, etc. Email Volunteers@McNeilPTO.com for more information.

• Classroom Help – whatever the teacher may need help with. 

• Copies!

• Kindergarten – 2nd grades make copies on Thursdays. 

• 3rd – 5th grades make copies on Fridays.

• Spirit Shack 

• Occurs roughly every six weeks on Fridays. 

• Students “shop” at the Spirit Shack during their recess. 

• Volunteers help with set-up, help students “shop” and pay for their items, and help with tear down. Come for all or part of the experience.

Once you have joined as a PTO Member, you are able to hold a Board Position. Click here to learn more about what duties are involved, as well as current open positions.

If you have any questions about joining the Board, email President@McNeilPTO.com.

Short answer, yes! We recognize that we are all parents and guardians first, and that means we might have younger children still at home that need to tag along to our daily activities. You know your child best, and if they can handle letting you do your volunteer duties while they sit off to the side or entertain themselves quietly, then bring them along. If that is not a good fit, let’s look at volunteer duties you can do from home or in a more relaxed setting. Throughout the year opportunities arise for things like cutting paper, folding, banner/sign making, creating balloon arches, etc. Please contact the Volunteer Coordinator to see what opportunities fit you best.

One opportunity that is for adults only is chaperoning a field trip for your student’s class.
