 COMMITTEES

 

FUNDRAISING

              We need a chair or co-chairs for the fall and spring fundraiser.  The chair or co-chairs would distribute fundraising information and coordinate the incoming and outgoing of orders.  They would also be available for distribution of the items.  The PTO does its best to provide money to support educational programs and initiatives at GHR that are not adequately funded the Board of Education budget.

 

SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR

              This committee needs a chair and many volunteers to make it a success. The chair would coordinate the many volunteers needed for set up, breakdown and the actual purchase time of the fair.   The parents and children of GHR can purchase books for themselves or as gifts from popular children and adult selections.  The PTO offers Scholastic Book Fairs twice a year, fall and spring.

 

STAFF APPRECIATION

              This is a committee that takes many volunteers and a chair or co-chairs.  Staff Appreciation is a time to say “thank you” to all the wonderful staff at GHR for providing our children with a safe and great educational experience.  Activities occur throughout the year, including the week of National Teacher Appreciation week in May. 

 

 

PTO CRAFT FAIR

              The PTO Craft Fair is a Coventry tradition.  Each school PTO coordinates a portion of the fair to make it a success.  GHR is responsible for the admission tables when people are entering the craft fair and the traditional breakfast in the morning for the venders.   This big event is held at Coventry High School the first Saturday in December.

Many, many volunteers are needed for this along with a few wonderful chairs.
