The Adams Elementary Parent & Teacher Organization (PTO) is a vibrant team of parents and community members who help make our school an incredible place to learn and grow. There are countless ways to get involved—whether you enjoy helping in the classroom, working in the outdoor garden, volunteering at school events, supporting behind the scenes, or taking on roles like event coordinator, room parent or art parent. No matter your schedule or interests, there’s a place for you in our PTO. Along the way, you’ll not only support students and staff, but also build meaningful connections and friendships that can last a lifetime.

Color Run Fundraiser

Our Fall Color Run is one of the most exciting events of the year and the first of two major fundraisers that support Adams Elementary! Each fall, students take to the playground walking path for a high-energy run filled with bursts of colorful powdered chalk, creating a joyful and unforgettable experience. Best of all, the funds raised go directly back to our teachers and school to support classroom needs and enrich student learning. It’s a day full of laughter, color, and school spirit! All are welcome to attend!

ADAMS ART AUCTION

Our Spring Art Auction is the largest fundraiser of the year at Adams Elementary and a favorite tradition in our community. This adults-only evening brings together creativity, generosity, and fun as each classroom showcases a unique collaborative art piece in a live auction. In addition, volunteers help gather incredible donations from families and local businesses for silent auction baskets, experiences, and prizes, all while guests enjoy a catered event. The funds raised support the remainder of our PTO budget and help make lasting improvements to our school, including projects like new playground equipment, a marquee sign, a brick patio with picnic tables, an outdoor learning space, and updated drinking fountains to name a few. It’s a memorable night that truly makes a lasting impact for our students.
