achieved, in part, through an educational program directed towards parents,
teachers and the general public; are to be developed through conferences,
committees, projects and programs; and are to be governed and qualified by
the basic policies set forth below. The objectives are:
A) To promote the welfare of children and youth in home, school and
community;
B) To support legislation laws for the care and protection of children and
youth;
C) To maintain and enhance the lines of communication for parents, school
and school board;
D) To provide a neutral ground, a forum, where ideas can be exchanged and
problems can be presented, addressed and ultimately resolved, and;
E) To represent parents, teachers and children at Board of Education
meetings.
Basic Policies:

Section II: The SPTO shall seek neither to direct the administration
activities of the school nor to control its policies.
Section III: The SPTO may coorperate with other organizations and agencies

provided its representative makes no commitments that bind the group
represented.
