Twin Cities German Immersion School Parent-Teacher Organization

Fostering the relationship between school, home and community for the success of every TCGIS student

The Parent Outreach Committee is responsible for coordinating welcome and orientation programs for new school families; coordinating PTO communications to the broader school community throughout the year; developing parent education programs; and organizing school-wide, community-oriented events such as Tanz in den Mai. 

Over the summer, we're working on a "Field Guide for New Parents" and a school-wide photo directory to help everyone put names to the many new faces that will be joining us in the fall.  We're also planning some great new events and get-togethers for 2009-2010, including the first-ever TCGIS "Auflauf Cook-Off," a potluck/fundraiser that will feature competitive hot-dish fun for the entire community!  Watch here for details on this and other upcoming events and initiatives.
