The IPTO cannot survive without the help of our family volunteers. Volunteering is an excellent way to make an impact on the education experience for our students, meet new people and have fun! When you become an IPTO member, you not only help us to continue providing many educational and fun events, you give yourself a stake in the future of the IPTO and our partnership with Itasca School District 10.


Here is our Volunteer policy (detailed version can be found in our bylaws on this website):

  • Volunteers must be active dues-paying IPTO members. You may complete membership on the LOGIN page.
  • To become a co-chairperson of a committee, you must have volunteered in the Spring prior to the year you wish to co-chair.
  • Co-chairpersons responsibilities include, but are not limited to, overall organization of the event or activity, financial management, coordination of volunteers, communications and status reports to the IPTO Board.
