We are a diverse and inclusive group of parents and teachers, working to build an exceptional school community for the benefit of all district children. Our PTO operates as a district-wide organization, serving every school in Peekskill, from preK through high school.<\/p>\n
We volunteer in our schools, organize enrichment activities, raise money to support the school district, advocate for a quality education for every child, and enhance communication between schools and parents. We encourage all parents and staff to get involved in the work of the PTO!<\/p>\n
