IN THE NEWS:
SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR THE PTO!
Each year, the PS/IS 187 Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) holds a Dues Drive, which makes a tremendous difference to PS/IS 187. Last Year, over $20,000 was raised with your generous donations separately from our other fundraisers. These funds went towards educational enhancement grants, field trips, after-school programming, and the gardening program. Any amount you can donate to the PS/IS 187 PTO makes a difference, and every donation is now tax deductible. And remember, regardless of whether or how much you give, every parent or guardian of a PS/IS student is automatically a member of the PTO. Because together, we can do more! CONTRIBUTE ELECTRONICALLY You now have the option of contributing to the PS/IS PTO via Chase QuickPay, Zelle or PayPal! Simply send the payment to ps187pto@gmail.com. Visit zellepay.com to see if your bank offers this service. Click https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=QMYHZU8NAUUTN for PayPal information.
