The Johnson Parent Teacher Organization meets on the 2nd Monday of every month at 7:00 PM in the media center . We welcome all parents to join us in our efforts to enhance the education of our children through various programs and activities. Limited childcare is provided.

Our goal is to support the educational opportunities and learning goals of the school and to speak on behalf of our children. Bringing our homes and our school closer, parents and teachers can work together in a united effort for our children. Together, as partners in education, we put "children first" at Johnson Elementary.

In order to be as effective an organization as possible, we have established By Laws to govern how we conduct meetings, elections, and everyday business related to our support of the educational opportunities and goals of Johnson Elementary.

Our goal as the JPTO is to provide financial support for the various educational opportunities and events for the students of Johnson Elementary. Unfortunately, it is more and more difficult to raise enough money to provide the level of support that we want to provide.

In order to reduce and hopefully eliminate the need for multiple fundraisers over the course of the school year, we need parents to participate in our annual Pledge Drive. We are asking parents of students at Johnson to make a one-time annual pledge of $75 if they have one student attending the school or $50 per student for families with multiple students attending the school.

If all parents of our 450 students would provide a pledge amount of $50.00 per student, then we would quickly and easily raise over $20,000 to financially support Johnson Elementary this year.

If you want to make your annual pledge, please make checks payable to Johnson PTO. All donations are tax deductible. Help us help our students!
