Member at Large
A great way to get involved and stay connected to the PTO without committing to a specific role. Members at Large are included in PTO board communications on Konstella, help out with events and projects as needed, and get a chance to see how different roles and committees work, making it a natural stepping stone into a future PTO position.


Recording Secretary
Join as a Recording Secretary for the Duffy PTO.  Join us in the PTO meetings and record our minutes to help us stay organized!


Get Involved: Duffy PTO Board Committee
