PTO Business

We'll be voting on both our budget and our officers for the 2023-'24 school year at the May meeting. PLEASE JOIN US!

We're eager to hear your ideas for next year's budget (e.g., a dedicated line item to support the school musical or certain clubs). And we're accepting nominations for new officers (President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary). You can nominate yourself or a friend! Email us at federalhillpto@gmail.com

Student Experiences

Thanks to the generous donations and impressive fundraising efforts of our PTO, every grade level is getting a special "student experience" to go along with each IB unit throughout the year. In the weeks ahead, Prep students will be going to the zoo, Masonville Cove, Fort McHenry, and more. All at no or low cost to families. Thank you to our supporters!

Other topics of discussion

Afterschool basketball program coming soon!

Expressions of interest for outdoor shadowbox to post flyers and murals to beautify the blacktop area.
