We need your help!
MPTO is a 100% VOLUNTEER organization that depends on the involvement of K-5 families. Many of our long-term volunteers will be “aging out” at the end of the 2024/25 school year. Please consider getting involved in one of the following positions:
General Volunteer Opportunities - an hour or two at various events throughout the year
Fun Run Fundraising Chair - The Fun Run is our biggest fundraising event of the year! Responsibilities include emailing and calling local businesses to solicit donations and build relationships.
OHA Book Fair Chair - The Scholastic Book Fair at OHA is held during Fall Conferences each year. We’re seeking a new chair to manage activities and coordinate with Scholastic and OHA for 2026.
WW Card Sharks Chair - Card Sharks is an enrichment club sponsored and led by MPTO parent volunteers. Sessions are held at Wildwood Elementary after school in fall and winter. Students of all math abilities get to play a variety of card, dice, movement, and board games to practice and develop skills. The Chair coordinates volunteers and activities.
Technology Chair - work from home position responsible for maintenance of website (Squarespace) and occasional creation of Canva graphics in coordination with the MPTO Board.
