River Oaks Elementary School (ROE) has a very active Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO), whose goals include:

• Fostering better understanding of the learning process through communication between parents/guardians and faculty
• Helping to meet the needs of students through cooperation between family and school
• Supporting the school through volunteer and financial assistance
• Promoting gifted and talented education

Members of the PTO include parents and guardians of ROE students, faculty members, and professional staff. There are many opportunities to volunteer, whatever your talents, interests, or time constraints.
