The Zervas PTO is committed to promoting the core values that guide
the school, and to enhancing the education of our children. Our
efforts primarily focus on three areas:
Strengthening a sense of community by bringing families together.
Harnessing the energy, expertise, and enthusiasm of parents
who want to volunteer in the school.
Raising money to support the school and to provide important
programs.
