We’re only as good as our volunteers!
The Wickliffe PTO has a strong and enthusiastic bunch of board members and committee chairs for the 2008-2009 school year. However, when it comes to all the great things we do for our kids – well, it takes a village.

Therefore, we ask that all Wickliffe parents consider the volunteer opportunities available throughout the school year with the PTO. If you’d like to help with an event particularly dear to you (or your child’s) heart, or if you’re free to help with several events/projects, please e-mail Volunteer Coordinator  at volunteers@wickliffepto.org for more information or to get your name on our list of available volunteers. We’ll pass your name onto the committee chair, who will be in contact when the event/project approaches. Thank you for considering these volunteer opportunities with your PTO!
