We would like to extend a warm welcome to you and your children for the 2011 – 2012 school year at Fords Middle School.
The PTO is dedicated to the education of all our students in school, at home, and in the community.
Our organization is made up of parents, just like you, who volunteer their time and energies for the welfare of our children.
The key to our success is volunteerism, and we need your help!
Family members such as grandparents, aunts, and uncles are also encouraged to become involved.
The PTO is supported wholeheartedly by our principal, Mr. Lottmann, our Vice Principal, Mr. Sealander, and all the faculty and staff of FMS.
We work together to ensure an excellent learning experience for all. |

Children will bring home permission slips to be completed by parents.
The entry fee is $10.00.
