EVENTS
Restaurant Nights
Check the calendar! Many local restaurants provide us with a great way to raise money for Middleton and an easy dinner for the whole family. And often dessert too!
Minnesota Twins Game
Each year the PTO organizes an outing to a Minnesota Twins game. Tickets are offered to our families at a discounted group rate, and our Middleton Choir performs either the National Anthem or for the 7th Inning Stretch.
PRODUCT SALES
Middleton SpiritWear
Buy a sweatshirt, hat or t-shirt to show your school pride! Spirit Wear is typically sold during assessments and may be available during other times of the school year. To inquire about purchasing, contact yourmiddletonpto@gmail.com
Minnesota Timberwolves Game
PTO organizes a group outing to see the Minnesota Timberwolves in the late fall. Tickets are offered to our families at a discounted group rate, and a portion of the sales will come right back to our school.
Winter Carnival
When it's cold outside, it's time to head back to school for an evening of fun, supporting our great school. Bring the whole family to the Winter Carnival for more games, an amazing silent auction and raffle!
Walk-A-Thon
Our Walk-A-Thon has historically been targeted for a specific need like new equipment on the playground. We had a wonderful 2022 event and look forward to the next event in fall 2023!
Join us for this family friendly fun run in the fall. Enjoy a run (or walk!) around beautiful Colby Lake while raising money for our PTO.
BOOK FAIRS
The PTO presents three book fairs during the school year: one each during fall and winter conferences, and a final one at the end of the year. The PTO receives "in-kind" Scholastic dollars for profits from the event. These dollars go toward enriching our classroom libraries and stocking books for literacy efforts.
