Join our SEC to learn about Stuart School attendance, budgetary, and academic matters. Families and staff meet monthly to review our school\u2019s progress. SEC members make decisions, and revise plans to support student success. SEC meetings are held monthly, typically in conjunction with family events.<\/p>\n
PTO board officers fundraise and organize school dances, book fairs, appreciation events, and our carnival. Volunteers bring it all together. We are reviving our PTO. Interested? Please email our main office: 344@milwaukee.k12.wi.us .<\/p>\n
