Spotlight: Prep's PTO

The Tindley Prep PTO is nothing short of amazing. It, like the school it supports, is a second year organization. However, age does not completely explain what this group is doing in our school.

A short rundown of their great accomplishments include: Tindley Block Party and end of year bash, dinner at Parent University, hallway patrols at the end of the day, working our concession stand for basketball games, donating an air hockey table, donating a table tennis set, creating certificates and programs for assemblies, and spearheading the yearbook project.

They are the most dynamic parent group with which I have ever worked and I look forward to all of the things they will continue to do.
