The Cove PTO brings families, teachers and staff together to support every student and strengthen our school community.
Through volunteering, fundraising and shared ideas, we help provide the resources, experiences and improvements that make Cove such a special place to learn and belong.
Every family is part of the PTO. Take part in whatever way works for you.
To bring our community together and help every Cove student thrive.
Classroom resources, enrichment, garden and outdoor learning, campus improvements, community events, teacher and staff support - and the many extras that enrich life at Cove.
Parents and caregivers volunteering their time, skills and ideas in partnership with Cove teachers, staff and school leadership.
The PTO Board is a group of parent and caregiver volunteers who help set priorities, support committees and make sure our fundraising and volunteer energy have the greatest possible impact for Cove students.
Board members work closely with school leadership, teachers and families throughout the year.

PTO AND SPARK - DIFFERENT ROLES. ONE SHARED GOAL.
Both Cove PTO and SPARK help enrich our students’ education, but they support different parts of the school experience.
PTO
Cove PTO supports programmes, resources and experiences specifically for The Cove School.
This includes classroom supplies, grade-level enrichment, campus and playground improvements, the garden, community events, staff appreciation, yearbooks and other Cove-specific priorities.
SPARK
SPARK funds and supports staff and programmes across all three LCMSD schools - Cove, Neil Cummins and Hall - including art, music, band, STEM, wellness, counselling, social-justice learning and leadership at Hall. .
Together, the PTO and SPARK help provide the rich, well-rounded school experience our students enjoy.
