Welcome to Khalsa PTO
Visit our carnival page for all the details!
Saturday, April 4, 2009!
11 am to 4 pm
Our carnival's rapidly approaching, and we need your help. We're having meetings every Wednesday, 11:30 am, at Pink Spot (sister business of zPizza). Contact us at kmspto@gmail.com to volunteer and for more information on how you can help.
Save your receipts! We have a great opportunity to raise money through Fresh & Easy neighborhood markets. Between February 1, 2009 and March 31, 2009, we will received $1 for every $20 spent at a Fresh and Easy store.
Put your receipts in the PTO folder at each school. We may have receptacles near your folders as well. More information on the Fresh & Easy site or on our Fresh & Easy page.
Our annual visit to the spring training game is on! Sit with Khalsa friends and family and enjoy the game. Learn more »

Other opportunities
-
Tax Credit: Save more than you give, while you can benefit yourself and Khalsa Montessori Students. You can pay $400 ($200 if single) in state taxes to the Khalsa Montessori School in support of the Khalsa Elementary School Activity Fund. You need not be associated with the school to reap the benefits!
If I donate $400, can I actually save more than $400 by saving on both my state and my federal tax returns? Yes, every dollar gifted is taken directly off your state income tax bill or refunded back to you if you do not owe additional taxes. Then, you may also deduct your tax-deductible donation on your federal tax return reducing your federal taxes. You do save more than you give! More info»
