Whether you are an existing or new parent at Severna Park Elementary School, we hope we can count on your support as a PTO member for the 2026-2027 school year!
Did you know?
It costs the PTO approximately $150 per student each year to provide opportunities for our kids to have the best experience possible throughout the school year. That includes assemblies, afterschool clubs, field trips, teacher appreciation events, the Fall Fest and Variety Show, and so much more.
Although PTO membership is optional, everything we do benefits every SPES student, and we couldn’t do it without your support. The standard suggested annual family membership is $35 but we ask that each family take a moment to consider the amount that is right for them. We recognize that this is an increase from recent years but our aim is to adequately support our increased student population.
Please keep in mind that there will also be additional opportunities to make donations and purchases throughout the year.
These may include:
- Individual classroom support (outreach will conducted by room parents)
- Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week
- Stock the Lounge
- Yearbook sales
- Scholastic Book Fair
- … and more!
Join today, give what you can, and help make this the best year yet for every SPES student!
