What is the Windom PTO?!
The Windom Parent, Teacher Organization is a nonprofit group of Windom caregivers and staff that work hard to make our school community successful, welcoming, and fun! We use our fundraising dollars for educational apps, fun events including the school carnival, field trips, yearbooks and spirit wear tshirts for all students and staff, teacher and staff appreciation meals, classroom supplies, recess equipment, special grants, and more.
