About the Mansfield Elementary PTO

The Mansfield Elementary School Parent Teacher Organization (MES PTO) is a registered 501(c)(3)nonprofit, volunteer-led group made up of parents, guardians, teachers, administrators, and staff working together to enrich the school experience for all students.

Our mission is to support the academic, social, and emotional development of every child by building strong partnerships between home and school, creating memorable events, and fostering a welcoming, connected community.

Throughout the year, the MES PTO:

  • Provides both financial and volunteer support for educational, recreational, and enrichment needs
  • Organizes beloved MES events like the Harvest & Heritage Festival, Snow Ball Dance, and Spring Book Festival
  • Promotes open and transparent communication between administrators, teachers, and families
  • Encourages school spirit through apparel sales, celebrations, and school-wide initiatives
  • Shows appreciation for our incredible teachers and staff through special gifts and recognition
  • Supports each grade level with events, supplies, and volunteer coordination
  • Provides 4th grade students with a complimentary yearbook and special gift
  • Represents MES at community events such as Celebrate Mansfield, Winter Welcome, and Trunk-or-Treat, helping to connect our school with the broader community

We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished together—and we look forward to welcoming even more families to be part of our team. Every voice, idea, and helping hand truly makes a difference!

If you are a parent or guardian of a Mansfield Elementary student, you are automatically a member of the PTO. Welcome! We encourage you to attend an upcoming meeting and get involved in whatever way works best for your family.
