Union Heights Elementary School
PTO
The Union Heights PTO meets on the first Tuesday
night of each month. They try to keep parents informed about events happening
in the school.
This group organizes the fundraising projects. These
include the Turkey Dinner, King and Queen, Tornado Twister, and the PTO Membership
Drive.
The PTO plans Pride Days to work on the upkeep and
improvement of the campus. Teacher Appreciation Dinners are planned and hosted
by members of the PTO. They participate in the assessment of school needs,
purchasing, and repair of playground equipment.
This organization has donated money to two students
at Union Heights with cancer.
They also sponsor contests to motivate children
at Union Heights to read.
The money raised helps to purchase VCRs, TVs, computer
software, and other items needed by the students and teachers.
The PTO also gives money to a scholarship for a
senior at Morristown East and West High Schools. This award is established
by the PTA and PTO organizations in the Hamblen County School System. The
Union Heights PTO also awards a plaque to the girl and boy basketball player
and the cheerleader with the highest scholastic average each year.
