PTO
The purpose of the PTO is to aid the students of John Adams Middle School by providing the funds for extra programs and activities - educational and recreational - beyond the basic classroom activities that the Board of Education provides for, as well as to promote open communication between the administration, teachers and parents.
JAMS PTO organizes the following events and fundraisers throughout the year - Book Fair, Movie Night, Plant Sale, Student of the month breakfast, Clothing Drive, School Spiritwear Sale, Car Magnets, Computer Cover Sale, Ice Cream Social, 8th Grade Dance, Teacher Appreciation week, Restaurant Nights, Box Top Collections, class field trips, etc.
The PTO is a valuable asset and support to you as a John Adam's student’s parent. Our intention is to go beyond fundraising and provide a platform for ongoing parent collaboration and much more.
We look forward to your participation and encouragement. Please email us JAMS PTO if you face any issues signing up.
JOIN JAMS PTO
John Adams PTO is excited to work with you during the 2024-2025 school year! Signing up to be a PTO member is now easy and paperless.
Follow the link to sign up
Since memberships are renewed every school year, PTO members must sign up each year. The membership fee is $15 per family.
What benefits do I get from joining the JAMS PTO?
Parent collaboration: Joining the PTO opens up a communication channel with other parents at your child's school. It is an easy way to share ideas and information, ask questions and to keep yourself updated with PTO activities. Being a PTO member is a great way to stay connected to your child's middle school experience!
Make a difference: Each year, the PTO sponsors events like assemblies, book fair, movie night, field trips and other extra curricular activities for our JAMS Knights. Your membership dues help on a financial level--without your support, these events would not be possible. In addition, your involvement as a volunteer (if you choose to do so) is always welcome and appreciated at these vents.
Payment: This year, we will be accepting payment in the form of cash/check or online payment through PayPal & Venmo. Once you register to become a member, you will receive an email regarding payment information.
Congratulations to the newly elected JAMS PTO Board. And thank you to the 2023-2024 JAMS PTO for all their hard work throughout their time at JAMS!
