Did you know?

As a 501(c)(3) organization and a PTO (not a PTA,), we are required spend the money we raise each year, with any dollars that haven’t been spent through the year transferring to our Teacher Wish List account. This means we start each school year at zero! That’s why your enthusiastic support of our annual membership drives, half day snack sales, and Fall events is so important. Your early participation is what helps us make all of the amazing programs happen throughout the year!

How We’re Doing Now

The PTO needs your help!

For 2025-2026, we are raising our fundraising goals, in hopes of meeting the expanded needs of our community. Working with our school administrators and the Oceanport BOE, we’ve heard consistent feedback from parents, teachers, and students, asking for additional clubs, expanded supplementary enrichment opportunities, and more. It’s our goal to bridge the gap between a sound school budget and the extras that will make our schools that much more exceptional.
