PTO Playground Equipment:
Jackie Buse, president of the PTO (Parent Teacher Organization), presented a report recapping the purchase of new playground equipment to be installed on the school elementary playground. Little Tykes and Play focus companies have both quoted a cost of $35,000.00. The PTO plans to move forward with the purchase, however, their treasury will be depleted. Annually they spend approximately $8,200.00 to support various school activities which must be put on hold until the treasury is re-established and they are asking the Village Board to consider a monetary donation to help jump start that treasury. Wood chips for fall safety will also need to be purchased.
