Welcome to the Lawrence PTO!

The Lawrence PTO is a volunteer-run, registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization of parents, guardians, and teachers dedicated to enhancing the school experience for students, educators, and families at Amos A.

Our mission is to ensure every student and family feels engaged, supported, and connected to the Lawrence community.

  • Lawrence Cares Pantry Drive

    SNAP benefits are ending soon. Let’s make sure every family has food this Thanksgiving! Lawrence is joining PTOs across the district to help stock our community pantries with allergy-friendly, shelf-stable foods. In addition, 10% of all donations to the Annual Appeal during the drive will automatically go towards this cause.

    Donations can be dropped in the front lobby bins from Nov 3-Nov 21.

    Every contribution shows our children and our community what Lawrence Loyalty means.

What We Do

Classroom Support & Grants

We’re proud to help our teachers do what they do best — inspire and engage students! The PTO funds classroom supplies, special projects, and teacher grants that make learning more hands-on and creative. From new books to science kits and art materials, we make sure every classroom has what it needs to thrive.

Enrichment & Extracurriculars

Learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door! The PTO helps bring exciting experiences to Lawrence students, from field trips, arts experiences, author visits, and the school garden, the middle school showcase, and supporting 8th grade celebration events. These activities give kids a chance to explore their interests, discover new passions, and make memories along the way.
