Fundraising & PTO Direct Donations

 

 

Ways you can support the A.W. Cox PTO:

 

  • Making a direct donation
  • Redeem your receipts for Box Tops for Education
  • Attending our Fundraising events, such as Harvest Fair and Movie Night
  • Purchase books at our Book Fair
  • Buying Spirit wear gear

 

Your contributions help the PTO provide additional support and experiences to our students.

 

It’s important to note that our town budget does not cover any enrichment programs or field trips, and so all of these special programs are 100% funded by our fundraising efforts and your donations. Below are a few examples of what your donations go towards:

 

·      All field trips, including paying for bus transportation in many instances. There are many great experiences planned each year.

·      Cultural enrichment – these are amazing in-school programs offered through out the year, which have included: Tanglewood Marionettes, Viva Brazil dance and music performance, Theater/Mythology performances, Storytelling with Antonio Rocha, and Laughing Matters - 2 award-winning performance artists who entertained our children with juggling, stories and humor to show how fun math can be!

·      After-school enrichment and clubs, such as but not limited to chess, cartooning, storytelling, book clubs, running groups, zumba, Cool-ology, and art classes run by the Guilford Art Center

·      Supporting the 4th grade float in the Citizen’s Day Parade

·      Field Day

·      Hospitality - Provide a teachers’ luncheon during conferences 2xs a year as well as one during teacher appreciation week

·      At the beginning of the year, we give every teacher a gift to each to put towards what ever they need for their classrooms

·      Early Guilford Day – we pay for all donations to the museums

·      House and grounds – the PTO covers expenses, and the work is done by volunteers

 

  

Thanks for all you do to make our school great!
