Welcome to the Merriwether Elementary PTO

We’re a team of parents, teachers, and staff who believe school should be more than just books and homework—it should be filled with fun, creativity, and community spirit! From planning exciting events to supporting the extras that make school days special, we work behind the scenes (and sometimes in silly hats) to make Merriwether Elementary shine. With teamwork, big ideas, and a whole lot of heart, we’re here to make school even more awesome.
