Parent Teacher Conferences
Call the school to schedule and appointment



...and thank you for visiting the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) website. The
PTO was established to promote the welfare, growth and education of children, parents,
staff and community at Desert Mountain Elementary School. To reach that goal each
year, the PTO sponsors projects and events that will improve the educational opportunities
of the students at Desert Mountain Elementary School. We hope this website will
help you become more aware of what your PTO is doing. Please feel free to visit
our website often to keep in touch with the PTO events at school.
The DME PTO meets
once a month to discuss issues presented before the executive board. We would like
to invite all parents, students, teachers, and DME staff to join us for these meetings
to share your feelings, concerns, and desires for the school. The general meetings
are held on the 4th Tuesday of each month at 5:30PM (except for school holidays-please
confirm all meeting dates on the PTO calendar).
As volunteers on the PTO we know that it takes so many more volunteers like you
to make our school great. We would like to thank everyone who takes the time to
volunteer at Desert Mountain Elementary School. If you would like to get more involved,
we would like to encourage you to sign up at our volunteer page. Together we can
make a difference.
