PTSO

PTSO is a parent teacher student organization formed to assist and raise money for Newell Barney College Prep. We meet monthly and post the meeting notice online at our Facebook account as well as send out an email through the school.

We invite you to join us to learn more. Like us on Facebook and request to join.

Ways to Get Involved

  1. Facebook – Get updates by joining Newell Barney College Prep PTSO on Facebook or on Instagram.
  2. Spirit Nights – Buy food from our partner restaurant on our designated day and we get 20% to 33% of the sales!
  3. Monthly PTSO Meetings – Hear what’s going on, give us your opinion on our past activities, help plan future endeavors, and volunteer to help with activities. Meetings are Mondays at 10:00 a.m. in the school office conference room. Here are the dates for the meetings this year: August 25, September 15, October 20, November 17, December 15, January 19, February 17, March 2, April 20, and May 18.
  4. Quarterly Fundraiser – Buy products or make donations and we receive a percentage of the sales.
  5. About-Once-a-Semester Social Event Fundraiser – Encourage your student to buy tickets for and attend our organized off-campus activities. We often coordinate a bus to take us from Newell Barney to the location. For example, Skateland Skate Night and Ice Night at AZ Ice Gilbert.
  6. Link Your Fry’s VIP Card to Newell Barney College Prep – Visit the Fry’s Community Rewards Program webpage to enroll and choose Newell Barney College Prep PTSO. Fry’s will donate a percentage of your purchases to our PTSO. This is the easiest way to support us.
  7. Participate in SignUpGenius Donating to Our Teachers – We will occasionally send out a SignUpGenius request for donations to make it easy for parents to see what we need for a particular event. For example, we have parents donate pies in November so that each teacher receives a store-bought or homemade pie. We will celebrate with and feed the teachers several times throughout the year (during parent-teacher conferences, after fall break, before winter break, etc.) and may need a donation of drinks, napkins, food items, etc. We will gift our teachers classroom needs (paper towels, Kleenex, Clorox Wipes, etc.) and fun presents too. (Flair pens, restaurant gift cards, shopping gift cards, etc.) These will be straightforward and easy sign-ups that you can drop off at the front office at your convenience prior to the event.
  8. Donate – Avoid all the mumbo jumbo and donate money directly to us! We can accept cash and checks. We are a 501c3, so donations are tax deductible. Make checks payable to Newell Barney College Prep PTSO.
