VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! As we approach the end of the school year, we are looking ahead to the next and are excited to invite you to consider taking a leadership role in the CNPTO for the 2024-2025 school year. We will have a new position opening on the Executive Board:

Membership Director

• Oversees the annual membership drive.
• Creates and maintains electronic registration forms and permission slips for all PTO events.
• Oversees the preparation of and ongoing maintenance of the Membership Directory.

All board positions are for 2 two-year terms and meet once per month. Please consider joining our team and being part of the planning and decision-making that go into running the PTO and fundraising for our schools. If you are interested in joining the Executive Board, or want more information, please email Kim Kaufman, president@coltsneckpto.org.

Let your graduate know how proud you are of their achievements by placing a congratulatory ad in the 2024 Cedar Drive Middle School graduation program! These ads are a great way to celebrate your graduate's hard work, and they make terrific keepsakes.

All pages are black and white and can include photos. We also offer a Shout-Out section just for students. Students may want to show support for their friends as they move onto high school, or they may want to thank their favorite teachers and administrators.
