PTO (Parent Teacher Organization)

The OMPS PTO is a parent-led 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

Our mission is to support the education of children at Old Mission Peninsula School by fostering relationships among the school, parents, and teachers.

The PTO offers support to the entire OMPS community - staff, students, and families. We work together with parents and OMPS staff throughout the year to bring quality enrichment activities to our students and to raise funds for student programming and teacher support, from classroom supplies to field trips. Upcoming PTO sponsored events can be found  below.

We welcome all parents/guardians of OMPS students to attend a PTO meeting and discover how critical your support is for the OMPS community.
