If you have a child attending Midvale or Lincoln Elementary Schools, you are automatically a member of the Midvale-Lincoln Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). No dues are required. We are simply a group of parents who want to find ways to meet the needs of all of our students. We plan community-building events, organize volunteers to help teachers and staff, keep our fellow parents informed about district-wide and educational trends and raise money to support all of our classrooms.
