About the PTO

Redbud PTO’s Mission:

  • To provide our teachers and students with the resources they need for the best learning experience.
  • To promote activities that support the educational experience of students at Redbud Elementary School.
  • To create a community of students, teachers, and families that fosters educational excellence.

The PTO is a group of parents, guardians, caretakers, teachers, administrators, and staff dedicated to enriching the educational experience of our students and teachers.

Redbud PTO strives to be an all inclusive organization. We do not collect membership dues to be a part of our organization. Any parent, guardian, or other adult standing in loco parentis for a student at the school is welcome and encouraged to attend and participate in our meetings and school wide events!

We hold monthly meetings at the school. All scheduled meeting dates are listed below and can also be found on the Redbud Elementary School Calendar. If you are unable to attend meetings in person, you can join in virtually on our Facebook page or watch back at a later date. Attending our monthly meetings is a great way to stay in the loop with PTO activities, explore different ways to get involved at the school, and meet other Redbud parents!
