About Lovett's Parent Teacher Organization (P.T.O.)
All parents are encouraged to become active members of the P.T.O. The yearly membership drive begins in August. Through participation in PTO projects, funds are provided for school enrichment programs. Of greater value and satisfaction are the friendships fostered through PTO participation in school endeavors. It means a great deal for your children to see their parents support their school and its activities in a positive manner, so join us, please. The Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is a vital part of Lovett Elementary School Community.
