Volunteer with the PTO

Every extra hand makes a big difference at Lawrence. Whether you can give a little time or a lot, there’s a way for everyone to get involved—and we’d love to have you! Check out our Volunteer Opportunities Page for a list of current events that need extra hands—there’s something for every schedule, skill, and energy level!

❤️Lawrence Loyalty: One Hour, One Community

Our PTO is continuing our popular initiative to streamline volunteering and boost participation. We’re asking each family to pledge just one volunteer hour to help support our school events. By focusing on one event per grade, we can create a stronger sense of community and ensure every event is a success!
