What Does the PTO Do?

The Long Hill Township PTO supports students, staff, and families through volunteerism, enrichment programming, community events, and school-wide initiatives throughout the year.

Class Parents

Each homeroom relies on parent volunteers to help coordinate classroom celebrations, communicate important information, and assist with classroom activities and events throughout the school year.

Special Grade-Level Events

The PTO proudly coordinates, funds, and supports some of the most memorable experiences of the school year, including:

  • 2nd Grade Community Day
  • 3rd Grade International Day
  • 4th Grade Science Fair

  • Cultural Arts Programs
  • Visiting Authors

Staff Appreciation

The PTO proudly supports teachers and staff throughout the year by organizing appreciation events and activities such as:

  • Welcome Back Breakfasts

These efforts are one small way we thank our incredible staff for everything they do for our students each day.
