Welcome and thank you for your interest in the WPTC,
Westchester Parents and Teachers for Children!
Our PTO is dedicated to fostering a supportive and engaging environment for students, teachers and families of Westchester Primary, Intermediate and Middle schools.
This site is your go-to resource for information on upcoming events, volunteer opportunities and important announcements.
Your involvement makes a difference. Together, we can create a school community where everyone is welcome and our students can grow!
WHO we are and WHAT we do:
The WPTC is YOU! It is a family-school partnership that is made up of families with students attending Westchester Primary, Intermediate and Middle Schools, and faculty and staff of our schools.
WPTC objectives include encouraging a closer relationship between the home and the school, as well as supporting the school district's mission. We sponsor fun activities throughout the school year, create volunteer opportunities to strengthen parent involvement, and organize ways to show our school staff how much we appreciate them. WPTC is a non-profit, volunteer-dependent organization that raises money for our schools; ALL proceeds go directly towards benefiting our students and our schools!
Our Mission
To promote and encourage a closer relationship between the home and the school so parents and teachers may cooperate in the basic educational development of the child and address the needs of the school for the benefit of all students.
How to get INVOLVED:
- When you registered for school, you were asked if you wish WPTC EMAILS. If you elected to, you will receive an email regarding committees you may wish to join, and ongoing email newsletters regarding the latest events and volunteer opportunities. If you still need to be added to our mailing list, please email us!
- Come to WPTC MEETINGS! All parents and community members are invited to attend WPTC meetings to find out what is going on, ask questions, and to contribute ideas. WPTC meetings are listed on the district calendar at the beginning of each school year. Attendees may include WPTC Officers, Principals, school and district representatives, and parents like you! We review recent events, and discuss upcoming events. Meetings last 30-60 minutes.
- EMAIL the WPTC Board! If you have questions or ideas to share, please reach out! wptc925@gmail.com
- Find and follow WPTC on FACEBOOK! Find "Westchester Parents and Teachers for Children" on Facebook for the latest postings of events and volunteer opportunities.
- VOLUNTEER! WPTC needs volunteers to lead or co-lead committees, and regularly offers volunteer opportunities throughout the school year. No experience is required. If you want to be involved, we want to help make that happen! WPTC events cannot run without your help!
