The SMES PTO

The SMES PTO represents a partnership of volunteers who share a common goal: to make St. Martin’s a place where our children can thrive. To that end, we work tirelessly to build a strong St. Martin’s community – one that students, parents, teachers, faculty, and staff are excited and proud to be a part of; one where every member of our community feels valued, welcomed, and included. Parents and guardians of current SMES students, current SMES teachers, and current SMES administrators are automatically members of the PTO. Annual membership dues are included in tuition.
