PTO Message

The PTO is so excited for this school year and have a lot of information to share about all the fun PTO sponsored events happening soon! 

As a reminder, our meetings are held on the first Monday of each month at 7 pm in the Pine Creek library. All parents are welcome!

The next regular meeting will be held on Monday, September 7th!

Be sure to check out our website: pinecreekpto.org!

Important Information
Directory Reminder!

Did you know that all Pine Creek families have access to the PTO directory?! What is the directory you ask? It is a great tool to help connect you with other families such as for birthday party invitations, play dates or even to set up a much-needed adult coffee date after the long summer break!

Since the PTO does not charge dues to be a member, we rely on donations throughout the year to fund perks like our website and directory! If you would like to contribute, use our Givebutter link here to donate https://givebutter.com/JyCEtZ
