For those families who are new to Roy Cloud, we’d like to extend a special welcome and let you know that all parents are automatically members of the Roy Cloud PTO.
Welcome 2026
Hello Roy Cloud families,
A new school year is just around the corner, and we are already looking forward to another year of learning, connection, and community. We have two important (and exciting) ways for you to give and get involved right from the start:
1. Growing Bright Futures
Our annual Direct Donation Drive has kicked off! Last year, PTO funding provided almost $1000 per student worth of programming, events, and resources we all love, these only happen with your support.
Every contribution helps provide classroom support, enrichment programs, community events, field trips and more. Your support helps our students thrive and are the only way we can continue to provide these critical and loved opportunities.
Join us in growing our children’s bright futures by donating here: Donate Now.
2. Volunteering just got an upgrade
Want to chaperone field trips or work independently and directly with students? There is a new requirement for all Level 2 and Level 3 volunteers.
Per California law, volunteers are required to complete a Mandated Reporter Training before volunteering in roles such as supporting field trips, working with small groups of students, assisting with yard supervision, garden lessons, and other activities that involve direct student interaction. Please note: Because Art in Action takes place in the classrooms with the teachers present, this would require a Level 1 clearance.
Ms. Bowdoin shared simple step-by-step instructions on how to complete this training. If field trips and behind-the-scenes help sound like your thing, this is your moment to complete this additional training.
Whether you give your time, your resources, or both, you are making a real difference in our school community. We cannot wait to grow another amazing year together.
Warmly,
Roy Cloud PTO
Have you made your annual donation yet?
Without the generous support of our families, many of Roy Cloud’s beloved programs wouldn’t exist. Our PTO’s 2026-27 Direct Donations campaign, Roy Cloud’s most important fundraiser of the year, is running through October. Our goal is to raise $300,000 and that’s only possible with a high percentage of families donating across all grades.
