Contacting Other Horn PTO Volunteers

To contact a particular PTO volunteer, see the list of Officers & Executive Board Members below, visit Activities or try one of the methods below. To protect volunteers from spamming, spoofing, and other invasions of privacy, no contact information will be available here without the volunteer's explicit consent.

  • The Tuesday Red Folders
    If the PTO person you are trying to reach has a different last name than their child, be sure to put the child's name on the item too. Please limit this delivery method to items that can be placed in the Tuesday red folders. Items that are not placed in the Tuesday red folders may get lost in children's backpacks, plus we should not be asking teachers to handle deliveries on other days of the week.
  • Various Mailboxes at School, near the Office:
    • "PTO" - We check this box most days of the week and redirect items as needed.
    • "PTO President" - Items left here reach the PTO president.
    • "PTO Treasurer" - Ditto the PTO treasurer.
    • "VIPS" - Use this mailbox to contact the Volunteers in Public Schools chair.
  • The PTO Filing Cabinet Opposite the Nurse's Clinic
    Every defined position in the PTO (except those with mailboxes as mentioned in the previous bullet) has a hanging file in the PTO cabinet. If you know the person or position you need to reach, you can put items in their hanging file. These files may not get checked often, so if you have put something urgent in a file, it might be best to let the appropriate person know that it's there.
  • Phone or Email
    Email addresses for most PTO officers, chairs, and liaisons are available through this web site. Additional contact information is published in the Horn Academy Student Directory.
