Welcome to the 2016-2017 NM PTO Needs Committee!! We appreciate you volunteering to help the PTO in its mission.
The Needs Committee was formed to help fund additional classroom needs that aren’t covered by other funding. Some of the requests we have funded in the past are Bridges Math Curriculum, shelving for classrooms, iPads, Gym equipment, and much more. The needs committee has an annual budget of $3000 and for the past few years we have used up all of this funding.
We are working on making some changes this year, including writing some guidelines, and opening up discussion for a period of time before voting. Following the discussion, I will be adding a Poll to the discussion thread, giving you the chance to vote. As of right now, I would like to leave the discussion open for 3 days and the voting for an additional 2, so that needs can be turned around within a week. The timing can be adjusted if needed, but this gives us somewhere to start.
Each Needs Request will be sent out in a separate thread, to keep the discussions focused on the individual request. We currently have 3 pending requests, I will be sending 2 of them out today, and have requested some additional information before sending out the 3rd.
Within the next week or so I will be posting some information regarding the guidelines, and open that up for discussion as well.
If you have any questions please feel free to email me!
Thanks,
Marci Dalm
