This is a website for the Carmel Creek PTO.
The mission of Carmel Creek School's PTO is to develop a closer connection between school and home by encouraging parent involvement; enhance the educational experience by supporting academic and enrichment activities; and improve the environment at Carmel Creek by providing volunteer and financial support.
The Carmel Creek PTO is looking for dedicated volunteers to fill open positions for the 2025-2026 school year.

Our newest display at Carmel Creek celebrates the cultare of Paraguay, a country in South America. Try saying Mba'éichapa (M-bah EE-chah-pah) , which means "Hello, how are you? " in Guaraní, an indigenous language used by about 70% of Paraguayans. Guaraní is one of the two official languages along with Spanish. You can see the traditional sharing drink, Yerba Maté which is a healthy tea shared with friends. The exquisite art is called Ñandutí, which means "spider web." From maps, to folk instruments, the items showcase the country's rich traditions and heritage.
The next cultural displays will be: Korea, Ukraine and India.
See previous spotlight photos here.
Heritage Council is looking for families to showcase their countries and cultures for the display. Sign up today! Please reach out to Liz Vang at the PTO for any questions or more information.
The Carmel Creek PTO is so happy to have you join our community.
