WHERE THE MONEY GOES


Each year your PTSO works hard to fund raise money for our school community.  In the past, these efforts have included the Fall Fair basket raffle, BOX TOP collections, South Elementary spirit wear sales, spirit night at Mooresville Ice Cream and the VERY successful BOOSTERTHON FUN RUN!!!!
So where does this money go?  

 Teacher Reimbursements - We all know teachers spend much of their own money to purchase items and materials for their classrooms.  Your PTSO reimburses EACH teacher on our staff up to $200 for classroom purchases…that’s nearly $6000!
Cultural Events - Each year the Children’s Theater of Charlotte makes a trip to South Elementary to perform for our children.  This special theater experience is paid for by your PTSO. 
Staff Appreciation – Every month a special luncheon is provided for the South Staff to honor them in the amazing work they do EVERY DAY!
Third Grade Dance - Our outgoing third grade students are treated to a special evening at the end of the school year.  Your PTSO also sponsors this event so it is FREE to all third graders!
School Improvements – Your PTSO can fund special projects throughout the year when the need arises - replacing broken equipment, updating old equipment and making the school a safer place for our children and our staff.
