Welcome

Welcome to the Independence Elementary PTO! Our organization strives to make Independence an exceptional place for our children and their teachers. The purpose of the PTO is to support, strengthen, enrich, and encourage the educational and social environment of Independence Elementary by fostering opportunities for members of the Independence family to socialize, communicate, and grow and endowing financial support for technology needs and various other programs/needs outside of the school's annual budget.
We are so proud of Independence Elementary and are thrilled to have you as part of our community. We look forward to a great year!
 

JOIN US FOR OUR NEXT PTO MEETING:

Our next PTO meeting is Tuesday, May 8th at 6:00 pm (in the Library).

Hope to see you there!

Following the meeting, we will have a year end, celebratory gathering at a local restaurant (TBD).
