ASH FORK UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT

A parent teacher organization (PTO) gives parents and teachers the opportunity to work together to supplement and enrich the educational experience.
This is a new organization for Ash Fork Unified School District. At our organization meeting last month, we selected officers to begin forming the Ash Fork School PTO. This group has filed the correct paperwork and drafted a set of bylaws.
There are many fun activities, and events we could offer our children here at Ash Fork School District. We encourage parents to join us Wednesday and help is create an organization that will benefit your children and their teachers throughout the school year.
