We strive for continued parent involvement in helping build a better educational environment for our children. We also, promote a school community where teachers and administrators can do their best work with the resources provided and help make school fun. Through fundraising efforts, the PTO was able to hold events such as Falloween and Winter Wonderland. We provided a book vending machine, new outdoor tables, numerous new instruments to our Music Department, microscopes for Science and new PE equipment. We also provided new books to our Media Center. For teacher appreciation week, we also provided lunch and surprises all week for the entire faculty at Mariposa.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt;font-family: 'Droid Sans';color: black\">For the PTO to be effective and to be a true representative of the school, it is essential to have parental involvement from as many parents as possible. Many working parents feel that they cannot be included in the PTO because they cannot come to every meeting or be on campus during the day. There are endless possibilities in ways you can help. Whatever your own level of flexibility, Mariposa PTO always appreciates their parent volunteers, as does our teachers and staff. Keep in mind that by volunteering, you will get to enjoy interacting with the kids, become friends with other parents, and accomplish things that truly make a difference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt;font-family: 'Droid Sans';color: black\">Whether you have 30 minutes or a couple of hours, your ideas, your time, and your talents are truly needed. We can match your time constraints and interests to needed tasks. Please consider volunteering, it really does make a difference in the lives of our children! We look forward to seeing you!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: normal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt;font-family: 'Droid Sans';color:

your Box Tops to collection sheets with glue, tape or a bag.\u00a0 The grade that collects the most box tops at the end of each month will win an ice pop party during lunch, so be sure to include your
