 What is the Arcadia Snowstorm?
Instead of individual gifts to teachers and staff this year, we ask that you contribute to one collective, monetary gift that will be equally divided, packaged festively and distributed to the faculty this holiday season! Why do Snowstorm? It’s a way to show our teachers we appreciate the work they do every day. We can join together to help them pay for family gifts, travel for holiday visits and more. How can you Donate? Instead of individual gifts, we ask you to contribute to the monetary gift fund. No gift is too small or too large! 100% of your generous donation will be given to our teachers and staff. • ONLINE: Paypal or Credit Card (CLICK HERE or at arcadiapto.org) • VENMO: @Arcadia-PTOInc • CASH/CHECK: Please contact Monique Rogers at treasurer@arcadiapto.org or Tricia Longnecker at tlongnecker4@gmail.com to make arrangements. Snowstorm donations are tax deductible! Credit card and cash transactions will be emailed a donation receipt. Please include your email in the private venmo transaction if you would like a donation receipt. Questions? Contact Tricia Longnecker at tlongnecker4@gmail.com. Let’s spread the holiday cheer!

The Arcadia PTO reimburses teachers and some staff member positions up to $200 (as of August 2021) for school related expenses. We know it's a sad reality that many teachers and staff feel they must dip into their own pockets to pay for items they need in their classrooms or to perform their jobs, and we hope we can lessen that burden. PTO membership and fundraising helps to support this critical way to support our AHS teachers & staff.
The PTO also takes into consideration funding requests outside of the $200 allowance from teachers, after the proposal has been approved by the AHS Principal. Larger expensed items for classrooms, departments, conferences, etc are something that we encourage staff members to bring the PTO. Please include as much information as possible for a faster decision. HOW TO RECEIVE A REIMBURSEMENT:
