Edgewood's Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is dependent upon families giving of their time, talents, energy, and resources. Volunteering through PTO is a great way to give back to our school and community. Whether you have an hour to spare or can commit to more time, are a worker bee or a creative talent, there are so many ways to serve. 

A form with volunteer opportunities (with the exception of room parents) for 2026-2027 will be available through Membership Toolkit starting July 1.

The room parent interest form will be available after class lists are posted on August 7 and will remain open until August 14. Two room parents for each class will be selected at random before open house on August 18. There will be a mandatory room parent meeting on Monday, August 17 at noon via zoom.
