The Johnston Middle School Parent Teacher Organization supports our staff and students at JMS by awarding grant money to teachers, providing them with meals and treats, helping to fund the JMS Pride program, and treating our students on occasion.
Examples of previous grants given to staff include:
Classroom library books for Language Arts teachers
Various items, adaptive musical instruments, and laminating machine for Special Ed classrooms
Router bits for industrial classes
VEX Robotics kit
Sewing machine for FCS classroom
Art supplies to create mosaics
Equipment for PE and Peer PE classes
Culturally diverse books for various classroom libraries
The PTO provides a meal for all teachers during the long day of parent teacher conferences and has given frozen treats to students on the first day of school. We have funded JMS PRIDE shirts for the staff and PRIDE prizes for the students to promote building unity and respect. The PTO provides containers for all staff members to take home cookies from the holiday cookie walk.
If you would like to send a check instead, just make it payable to "JMS PTO", put it in an envelope marked "Friends of JMS PTO", and bring it to the main office/main door.
Your employer may have a matching funds program- let us know if we can help facilitate a match.
