Volunteer SHS PTO

Volunteers Needed!

We have lots of opportunities (and needs!) for volunteers to make Spartan programs and celebrations happen this spring. If you are able to give a little of your time to help us support teacher appreciation, student recognitions (including scholarship interviews!), senior activities, and much more, please visit the Sanderson PTO website or shoot us an email! Thank you for helping us stay #SpartanStrong!
The PTO has some serious gaps to fill next year. Help us keep the momentum going! 

Some interesting facts about our current PTO volunteers:
  • ~80% of our board/committee members have full-time careers
  • One board member has a PhD in neuroscience!
  • At least five members own their own businesses
  • Our president has overcome her fear of public speaking thanks to PTO!
  • We are passionate about public education and SHS and have raised over $53,000 during a pandemic!
Please consider getting involved, it's FUN and worthwhile. Click the link below to indicate your interest.
