Farmer Elementary PTO

09/28/2026

We love our small but mighty school 💛💚

Saturday was PTO appreciation Day and we just have to say we have the absolute best PTO around! On Friday September 23rd our 3rd-5th grade students participated in our annual Fall Dance. Our PTO graciously allowed all the proceeds from the dance to help fund our annual 4th grade field trip to Raleigh. Thanks to Farmer PTO, we were able to raise over $950 to help supplement the cost of this wonderful experience for our Farmer students. Thank you to all the PTO who took the time to help us execute this dance, and for donating all of the money made during concessions. Your time and energy does not go unnoticed and we are so lucky to have you.
