PFO
Parents Faculty Organization

Who we are: To all our new parents just joining us this year, we'd like to introduce ourselves. The PFO is a nonprofit parent faculty organization whose membership includes all parents, legal guardians and faculty at Wilcox Technical High School .

What we do: We provide academic scholarships for college bound students and tool scholarships for students planning on going directly into their trade after graduation. We also provide teacher enhancements, for example in the past we have given funds to the sports teams, skills USA and teachers for classroom materials.

Why we need you: Being a member of the PFO means that you have face-to face contact with the principal or assistant principals to ask questions, get information and discuss what's going on in the school. We want to improve Wilcox through your ideas, leadership and creativity. This is your opportunity to voice your concerns and to meet other parents and faculty.

Did you know: That the No Child Left Behind Law states that the PFO organization must be part of the school decision making process? Also, the PFO does not receive state funding so its up to us to generate the money we need for scholarships and enhancements.

Is there a fee? Yearly dues are $5.00 per family.

When do we meet? We meet the first Tuesday of every month at 6:30 pm.

Hope to see you at our meetings!
