The PTSO comes gets everyone working together -- parents, teachers, and students -- all toward a common goal of making the middle school experience the best it can be for our children.
We have fun but we also need your help. There is something for everyone -- from donating to volunteering, coming to events or joining the PTSO.
PTSO volunteering is also an opportunity for you to hang out with your children, other parents, McKemy teachers, and staff. Some of the fun things we do are:

- Volunteering events in late-Fall (in prior years we've supported the Ironman Foundation who donates to the PTSO)
- Garden Club
- Holding monthly Supper Club events at nearby restaurants, who then donate a percentage of sales to the PTSO
- Supporting needs of the school through field trip and school event volunteering, sports boosters, club sponsorships, field day and much more
