Filling Gaps in Education Funding
We enhance educational opportunities through enrichment programs, community events, and classroom resources that support teachers and create meaningful experiences for every Farallone View student.
About Us
The Friends of Farallone View Parent Teacher Organization's (FOFPTO) mission is to enrich the educational experience of children at Farallone View Elementary School and foster a sense of community. We are a group of parent volunteers dedicated to providing the best possible experience to Farallone View students, teachers and staff.
We fund a variety of enrichment programs for students including science and physical education classes, along with special programs in the performing arts like opera and the annual Farallone View talent show. Other student enrichment opportunities funded and managed by the PTO include school assemblies. We organize book swaps and support school events like Continent Day and March Reading Madness. We present Oceans Week annually, a week-long event that combines hands-on science activities, the arts, and a strong focus on sustainability. Oceans Week concludes with the annual “recycled art show,” in which students create ocean animals from recycled materials and then add them to a large school wide art installation.
Our child is thriving at Farallone View, not only because of the awesome principal, teachers and staff, but also thanks to the enrichment opportunities provided by the PTO. He is deeply passionate about science thanks to his weekly science class. He’s inspired by events like the school opera, the spelling bee, the Lion Dancer assembly and Oceans Week. He loves being in the outdoor classroom gardening and studying nature. He often tells us, “I love school,” and the efforts of the PTO have done a great deal to foster and sustain that love.
