About
About Our PTO
The Glenn York PTO organization is a nonprofit organization that was formed to help create, compliment and support the student body, teaching staff, administration and learning environment at Glenn York Elementary School in Alvin Independent School District. This is done by supporting teachers, staff and parents in their efforts to to develop well-rounded children.
​
Our mission is to positively influence the improvement and growth of our community (City of Pearland, Alvin ISD and Brazoria County) through supporting the education of young people, equipping educators, cooperating with administration, sharing volunteer opportunities with parents, and opening the door for outreach with community stakeholders. We believe that our parent teacher organization can accomplish our mission by prioritizing our efforts in parental engagement and outreach; increasing communication and coordination between parents, school staff and administration; encouraging, empowering and developing volunteer leadership.

Treasurer
Dee Golemo
I'm a mom of five wonderful children. I am also a Recruiter at a clinical research organization, where I get to marry my infatuation with science with my love of matching people to careers. Last year, I was the PTO Treasurer and co-chair of the Teacher Appreciation committee. I have loved getting to know the teachers, staff, and parents at York over the past few years. Helping with the PTO is my way of giving back to this wonderful community, while at the same time working to make it even better. I hope to continue to serve in any way that I can.
