Welcome!

The Sheridan Parent Teacher Organization provides activities and enrichment for Sheridan Elementary students in the Lincoln (Nebraska) Public Schools system. This website will acquaint you with the PTO, inform you of its programming and show how you can become as involved and supportive as you wish to be. You can also find links to local resources, see photos of past events and read the minutes from previous meetings. We hope you’ll take a minute to look around the site and see what our PTO has to offer. And if you'd like to be added to our PTO emailing list, click here.

Friends of Sheridan

If you are willing to give money to support the work of the PTO, please become a Friend of Sheridan by completing and returning the Friends of Sheridan form when it comes home in the Friday folder.

Volunteering

If you relish a hand-on type of involvement in your child's schooling, you can let us know your interests by filling out a Volunteer Form and returning it to school.

Interested in being involved at Sheridan?

The PTO can always use more of two things: Money and people-power. You can enhance your child’s years at Sheridan by giving either, or both. Whichever method suits you — hands-on or hands-in-pocket, or both — we welcome your extra involvement in our PTO projects. Either way, your involvement will be making an important difference at Sheridan.

New Rain Garden at Sheridan

A rain garden is an area of native shrubs, perennials, and flowers which holds rain water runoff that flows from hard surfaces and/or lawns. Rain gardens are effective in removing up to 90% of nutrients and chemicals and up to 80% of sediments from the rainwater runoff. To find out more, please visit the Rain Garden Page hosted by the City of Lincoln.

Did you know that the City of Lincoln offers rain garden grants for homeowners as well as schools? The City pays for 80% of the cost! Learn more here.
