There are so many ways to connect and contribute — find what works for you!
Runkle PTO runs entirely on volunteer energy. Whether you can give an hour at a school event or take on a bigger role coordinating a program, your time makes a real difference for students and teachers.
Opportunities range from setting up for events, helping in the cafeteria, organizing the book fair, chaperoning field trips, joining a committee, or even taking on a board role. No prior experience necessary — just enthusiasm and willingness to pitch in!
Our WhatsApp community is the fastest way to stay connected with other Runkle families in real time. Get quick updates, ask questions, share news, and connect with parents across all grades.
Just email the PTO and you'll receive an invitation link. The community is moderated to keep things friendly and on-topic.
Every Sunday, the PTO sends a newsletter with everything you need to know for the week ahead — upcoming events, volunteer opportunities, school news, Zoom links for virtual PTO meetings, and more.
To receive the newsletter, register your family in the PTO directory. Our online directory is coming soon — in the meantime, email us and we'll add you to the list.
Financial contributions to the Runkle Annual Fund go directly toward enriching student experiences — from classroom supplies to special programs that otherwise wouldn't be possible.
Every donation, large or small, stays at Runkle. PTO Grants are awarded each year based on teacher proposals.
