Welcome to the Mahtomedi Elementary
Parent Teacher Organization
Celebrate the end of the school year at the 2025 MPTO Spring Fling on Friday, May 16th from 5:00 - 8:00 pm at Wildwood—fun for the whole family! All funds raised support Wildwood and O.H. Anderson Elementary Schools. This year’s Spring Fling will feature a variety of free and ticketed games and activities, cotton candy, food trucks, classroom raffle baskets, community association booths, and spirit wear! More information coming soon.
The Spring Fling is a big fundraiser for MPTO, and we cannot do it without A LOT of parent volunteers. Please consider signing up to work a fun, short shift during the event. View open slots on SignUpGenius
We need creative minds to help put together our always popular Raffle Baskets! Got a theme idea? Want to donate items or assemble a basket? If you’re interested in helping with a basket, please reach out to your child’s teacher.
