Fundraising

PTO Fundraising Opportunities

The Pittsfield PTO provides tens of thousands of dollars of financial support to Pittsfield students and teachers each year. These funds enhance the learning environment at Pittsfield by:

    • Supporting teachers and staff in acquiring the supplies they need to help students learn. Staff use the funds to purchase a variety of items they need, including basic items like folders, pencils, paper, craft supplies, tissues, disinfecting wipes, snacks, and books, plus special items like projectors, chairs, shelving/organization units, and more. These items are not provided by the school district and otherwise come out of teachers’ own pockets.
    • Covering 100% of field trip fees and transportation, which would otherwise be passed along to families.
    • Hosting school assemblies.
    • Addressing school-wide needs by creating and stocking a snack closet and keeping the Care Closet full of personal care items, spare clothing, and winter clothing.
    • Supporting school-sponsored events and putting on PTO-sponsored fun, affordable events for the school community.

Fundraising is essential to continue the PTO's mission to support and enhance learning at Pittsfield Elementary School. Your support of these programs directly impacts the academic experience of our students. Thank you for taking an active role in our fundraising activities and programs!
