Welcome to the Irving School Parent Teacher Organization!

We are a group of volunteers in Highland Park, NJ working in collaboration with Irving School teachers and administrators to support students and teachers, and build community. We organize events throughout the school year and coordinate fundraisers to help pay for field trips, assemblies, other improvements for the school, and more.

All parents and guardians of Irving Dragons are invited to join. There are no membership fees.

Why are PTOs important?

PTOs foster a partnership between parents and educators to enhance student well-being and academic success. They support schools by raising funds for resources not covered by the regular school budget, facilitate parent involvement and communication, create community events, and advocate for student's needs.

Get involved!

We're looking for help with two key roles for the upcoming school year. If you're interested in volunteering, please contact the appropriate person below:

Spirit Wear Coordinator: president@irvingschoolpto.org
Treasurer-in-Training: treasurer@irvingschoolpto.org

Did you know?

Every Friday is School Spirit Day and students are invited to wear purple to school!
Every spring the PTO hosts a popular used-book sale, where every kid goes home with a book regardless of whether or not they bring in money from home. If you have children’s books in good condition for ages 3-7 to donate, contact president@irvingschoolpto.org
You can wear Irving School spirit wear Friday or any day
- Order t-shirts directly from the PTO via this form
