The Emerson Elementary Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is a group of parents, teachers, and community members who all want to help contribute to Emerson Elementary School.

Families with 3rd-5th graders…….
Goodman Community Center is exploring the possibility of adding another classroom of 3rd-5th grade. We are looking to potentially open this class on February 2nd, depending on interest. This age group is funded by our CLC grant, so tuition is FREE. If interested, your child will need to sign up for full-time care which is Monday thru Friday. We are hoping to decide by the end of the week if we can open the class or not. We will have to reach a certain number of students to open this classroom. If you’re interested, please email me at [email protected].
