Relief to Educational Barriers Fund - during COVID 19 School Closings
As our students' basic safety, emotional and physical health directly affects their ability to learn, the Midvale Lincoln PTO board has established a Relief to Educational Barriers Fund during this COVID 19 emergency. These funds will be used to assist students and their families with financial needs such as food, homelessness and eviction prevention, funding to keep phone and internet services, purchasing enrichment activities, household/personal hygiene supplies, transportation, child care and other expenses that have a direct impact on the health and security of our students.

Help us build a new playground at Lincoln Elementary School
|
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Midvale Lincoln PTO is refocusing on directly supporting our students, educators, and families at this critical time. Therefore our initial goal of building a new playground by the fall of 2020 will not be met.
However, we still plan on making this a reality we look with hope toward a time when we can build a magnificent space for our kids to run, play, climb, swing, learn and feel joy. |

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.

There are many ways for you to help Midvale/Lincoln - both from home on your own time and during the day at one of the schools.
