Our PTO is made up of hard-working parents & teachers who pool their talents to provide practical support for our school. Those listed below volunteered to provide leadership this year. We hope you'll get to know their names and faces, and feel free to reach out to them if you have questions. To get in touch with any of our Board and Committee members, please email coulsontoughpto@gmail.com.
