Lincolnshire-Prairie View School District 103
Parent-Teacher Organization

The Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) of District 103 is a volunteer-based non-profit organization focused on:
  1. Promoting an environment in which every student has the opportunity to grow intellectually, socially, emotionally, and physically.
  2. Promoting a close relationship between the home and the school, so that parents, guardians, teachers, school staff, and school administrators may cooperate in the education and enrichment of our students. 
  3. Stimulating community interest in and encouraging support for our schools through fundraising efforts. ​

Volunteers Needed for the Daniel Wright Zero Waste Program
​This is the 2nd year of our Zero Waste program. Our school is making every effort to divert food waste and recyclables away from the landfill, to composting and recycling facilities. This is our commitment towards a circular economy!

We need help in the Daniel Wright lunchroom to guide our students to discard only food waste in compost bin and only recyclables in the recycling bin. Contamination of these bins results in extra work for our custodian staff and the possibility of the material being landfilled (wasted) if it is heavily contaminated.  

​Thank you for your consideration in helping our students being stewards of the environment. Once you sign up, you will receive more information on how to assist in the lunchroom.

Why Get Involved

  • When you're part of the PTO, you get an inside view of what's happening at the schools.
  • When you're part of the PTO, you make new friends and have a chance to connect with other parents who share similar interests.
  • When you're part of the PTO, you get to see your child(ren) learning and growing at school.
"Two major studies from the 1990s and 2000s showed the positive effect parent involvement has on student achievement and other success factors. They were so influential that researchers today still reference them frequently. A more recent study—published in 2012 by researchers at North Carolina State University, Brigham Young University, and the University of California, Irvine—reinforced these earlier studies and found that family involvement has a greater effect on positive academic performance than does the quality of the school building. And it’s not just students who are positively affected; parents, teachers, and schools as a whole also experience benefits."
When parents are involved in their children’s education, those children are more likely to:
  • Earn better grades.
  • Score higher on tests.
  • Attend school regularly.
  • Have better social skills.
  • Show improved behavior.
  • Be more positive in their attitude toward school.
  • Complete homework assignments.
  • Graduate and continue their education.
Parents are more likely to:
  • Be more confident interacting at school.
  • Be more confident in their abilities to help their children learn.
  • Be held in higher esteem by teachers.
  • Continue their own education.
Schools are more likely to have:
  • Better morale among teachers.
  • Higher ratings of teachers by parents.
  • More support from families.
