2024-2025 PTO President's Letter

Dear Foulks Ranch Elementary families,

It is my honor and privilege to serve as President of the Foulks Ranch PTO for the 2024-2025 school year. I’ve been a parent here since 2022, and I started my involvement with the PTO in 2023. I have previously served as Recording Secretary on the PTO Board and as chairperson for the Silent Auction and raffle at the Fall Festival.

I see the PTO’s mission as enriching the experience at Foulks Ranch for students, staff, and families. To that end, I want to make sure that we are creating the space for a more open conversation between the PTO Board and our Foulks Ranch community. My next goal for this year is to deliver on the feedback we received from families last year. I’m looking forward to delivering the same great events like the Fall Festival and bringing new events like Bingo Night to the school. 

I look forward to working with you to provide the best possible experience for our children while they’re at Foulks Ranch Elementary. Please feel free to send me your thoughts via email at EGFoulksRanchPTO@gmail.com or at any of our PTO meetings (6pm on the last Wednesday of the month), where I sincerely hope to see you and hear from you. 

Sincerely,

Jon Wainwright
