The El Granada Elementary PTO is a non-profit, volunteer organization dedicated to supporting the educational and enrichment needs of our students. El Granada Elementary has a dedicated and passionate group of parents and teachers that make our school unique. The “P”in PTO is for “Parent” and just by being a parent you are a member of this organization. Since we are a volunteer organization our success depends on participation from the parents. Being involved is one way to further your child’s education, learn more about the school, and meet other parents in our community. Every year, through the efforts of the PTO, programs that are no longer funded by the state are made possible. These include:

  • Music

  • Physical Educationsmall3Y5A4476

  • Hands-on Science

  • Art in Action
