With your help, the Cottonwood PTO raises a significant amount of money each year. Through the Fall and Spring funds allocation process, money that is raised in excess of the budget is allocated to specifically-requested items. As with all PTO meetings, the entire Cottonwood community (parents, teaches and staff) is invited to attend these meetings at which time specifically-requested items will be voted upon in a formalized process as described in the PTO Policies & Procedures.
A short list of items that have been funded by the Cottonwood PTO in past years include:
- Teaching Assistants
- School-Wide Enrichment
- Field Trips
- Technology
- Playground Equipment
- Literary Subscriptions, including , Storyworks and Time for Kids
- Computer Subscriptions, including RAZ Kids and Pebble Go
- A/V equipment
- Shelving Units for classrooms
- Smart Boards
