Make a difference in your child’s school experience!
Marveled at the book selection at the Dallin library? Heard tales of an apple-picking trip from an excited kid? Savored delicacies from around the world at Dallin Culture Night? That’s thanks in large part to our PTO.
Every year, the Dallin PTO raises funds to provide essential resources and programs that directly benefit our students, teachers, and families. We rely on your generous support to fund these initiatives, and we need your help to make this year a success.
This year, we hope to raise $25,000 through the Dallin Annual Fund. This represents roughly 65% of our annual fundraising goal.
Here's what the PTO provides for our community:
- Field trip costs for all kids, ranging from the Museum of Science to Zoo New England
- Stipends for supplies in each classroom, such as rugs, wipes, and tissues
- Enrichment activities like the Dallin and Menotomy Day activities
- Library books, art materials, music supplies, and wellness/PE equipment
- Room representative funds for teacher and specialist holiday and year-end gifts
The PTO also offers community-building events and resources:
- Parent coffees and forums
- The ASSIST Fund, offering support for families in need
- Community picnics, and family movie and game nights
- Teacher Appreciation Week
- The online Dallin family directory

Here are examples of how your donation makes our work possible at different levels:
Student Level ($50) - Your donation will fund your student’s annual field trip budget and class gifts for their teacher.
Class Level ($150) - Your donation will fund everything at the Student Level plus your teacher’s classroom stipend and teacher appreciation activities throughout the year.
Grade Level ($225) - Your donation will fund everything at the Class Level plus library materials, PE equipment, music equipment, and art supplies.
School Level ($300) - Your donation will fund everything at the Grade Level plus all-school assemblies, recess equipment, new furniture like rugs and tables, and our IT budget.
Future of Dallin Level ($500) - Your donation will fund everything at the School Level, plus our mini grant program for new ideas. It will also help us maintain adequate reserves to ensure a resilient future for future activities and enrichment.
We value all donations and encourage you to give at whatever level you’re able, on a one-time or recurring basis.
On Friday, April 11, we’ll also host our beloved biannual Dallin Auction Night at Town Hall, a complementary fundraising opportunity and a chance for our community to celebrate. We appreciate your support.
