2023 / 2024 Ideas & Suggestions
We would like to invite all ideas and suggestions for the 2023/2024 year to be submitted to the Reid PTO by our last public PTO meeting of the school year on May 1st. We work over the summer on things and set the calendar for most events in August. We will be asking for volunteers to chair events, so if there is something you would love to be a part of, let us know. You can email ideas and suggestions to ReidPTO@yahoo.com or attend the March 6th or May 1st PTO meeting. We look forward to planning another great year!
