PTO Family Directory PTO Family Directory

At the bottom of this (and each newsletter going forward), you will find a link to the PTO Family Directory. Families who wished to have their information shared provided it to families earlier in the year. The hope is that families use this as a resource to connect outside of school! If your information is incorrect, or if you would like your information to be included, you can email the PTO: williamsburgpto@gmail.com
