Instead of asking students to go door-to-door selling, collecting money, and delivering the orders - while only a portion of the funds raised would support the school, the Red Rock PTO runs a pledge drive! 

Please consider a tax deductible donation of $45 per child or $65 per family to help us reach our goal of $10,000, which is just a fraction of the $40,000 we are funding this year. Any amount you choose to give is greatly appreciated and helps to support our commitment to NO door-to-door fundraisers.  To support this fundraiser,simply write a check to the “Red Rock PTO”  or donate via our PayPal link on this page.

Why give?  Because the PTO funds provide for many enrichment resources for staff and students including:

• PARP (Parents As Reading Partners) books
• ŸBattle of the Books
• ŸPlayground maintenance
• ŸField trips - like the Big River Journey
• ŸDestination Imagination, Legos Robotics Explorers, Math Masters, and more

Need more reasons to give?  Hear what the teachers have to say about PTO funding:

The PTO is “A Teacher’s Best Friend!”  Our days are made brighter and we are able to provide our students with lessons and activities that have been greatly enriched because of the Red Rock PTO - Mrs. Munson,  Grade 5

The Red Rock PTO has been very generous in supporting teachers and students.  They have purchased numerous resources to enhance curriculum including a wealth of math and reading games for students to play in small groups. - The First Grade Team

Red Rock’s PTO makes so many great resources available for students and families!   They continually support Red Rock through generous contributions towards book purchases in the Media Center.  Another crucial opportunity the PTO makes possible is through funding many of our digital subscriptions.  All these generous areas of funding create a learning environment that is rich and rewarding for students and teachers. - Mrs. Larsen, Media Specialist

The PTO provides funds for a successful literacy program in our school.  They fund the purchase of books used for instructing students and professional development books for teachers.  - Mrs. Williams, Reading Specialist

Physical Education uses PTO funds towards track meet ribbons for the 5^th grade track and field day.  The funds are also used to purchase other supplies that we use most days for activities in the gym - Mrs. Skaar, Physical Education.
