William Hatch Elementary School PTO

Get Involved

Parent Involvement within the schools is a key component for improving student achievement. Hatch PTO believes that the more involved parents are with their child's learning, the more effective that learning will be. The PTO encourages the voluntary participation of parents/guardians in school programs under the guidance of professional educators. There are many options to get involved in addition to participation on a standing committee.


"Service is what life is all about."

"A lot of people are waiting for Martin Luther King or Mahatma Gandhi to come back - but they are gone. We are it. It is up to us. It is up to you."

"We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make, which over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee." - Marian Wright Edelman

"Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love." - Martin Luther King, Jr.

Are you able to offer a small amount of time helping your PTO make Hatch an even better school? We have made great strides in the last year, with new programs, funding for student organizations and activities, new equipment for classrooms and the school, and more. The PTO meets once per month, the 2nd Tuesday of each month, and supports programs throughout the year.

Volunteering Opportunities

Event Chairs Needed

All of the programs and events sponsored by the Hatch PTO are organized and staffed by parents, guardians, and other volunteers. Ideally, co-chairs with varying degree of experience with a particular program or event work together to insure the smooth transition of administration from one year to the next. In reality, we do find ourselves in the position of having to regroup from time to time. If you are interested in chairing an event, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator: Carrie Tran or select the "Contact Us" menu at the top of this page.
