What is Salem PTO? |
PTO stands for Parent-Teacher Organization. We are a group comprised of parents and teachers who volunteer our time and efforts to support Salem students and staff. We work hard to provide additional financial support to the school in order to enhance the educational and recreational activities available to our Salem Elementary families. We take our role as Caring Coyotes very seriously.
And , the best part? As a family of Salem Elementary, you are already a PTO member! That's right - there is no need to sign up or pay a registration fee.

PTO Supports That?
The areas that the PTO touches are far reaching at Salem. We support the overall educational experience of our children, but also strive to support our teaching staff. We love our students, teachers, and school which is why we work so hard to provide all that we can. This ensures that they have the best educational experience possible. Below is a sampling of how PTO funds have been used to support our #CaringCoyotes:
