We're parents and caregivers, just like you — organizing events, raising funds, and connecting our community.
From International Night to Field Day, we organize events that bring Runkle families and staff together all year long.
PTO grants fund special programs, classroom materials, and experiences that go beyond what the school budget can cover.
We connect new and returning families through our directory, WhatsApp community, and monthly meetings — in person and virtual.
Donations to the Runkle Annual Fund directly support student programs and teacher project grants. Every dollar stays at Runkle.
Our weekly Sunday newsletter keeps families up to date on events, school news, and volunteer opportunities.
Whether you have an hour or a whole semester, there's a way to contribute. No experience needed — just enthusiasm!
The PTO supports in-school and after-school programming and organizes events all year long. Here's a taste of what to look forward to.
Runkle's PTO is an independent, volunteer-run group of parents, caregivers, and staff. There's no membership fee and no prior experience required — just a willingness to be part of something good.
Our work is guided by Runkle's values: Respect, Unity, Nurturing Ideas, Kindness, Learning from Mistakes, and Effort.
