Pto Massachusetts Parent-teacher Runkle School Pto

The Runkle PTO supports Runkle School by fostering community engagement, enhancing educational experiences, and organizing events that promote collaboration among parents, teachers, and students for a vibrant school environment.

The Runkle Spring Fling this year is going Old School...Pinball machines, throwback crafts, arcade games, nostalgic snacks and treats, photo backdrops, beer, wine, custom cocktails and mocktails, and more. PLUS, a special tribute to retiring Runkle principal Donna Finnegan! Leave the kids at home and join us in the Runkle Multipurpose Room for this adult-only social event
