The Emerson School Parent Organization (ESPO) exists to support Emerson’s mission by creating opportunities for families to build friendships and community. Unlike a traditional PTO, ESPO is not an independent organization. Instead, it is made up of parent volunteers who partner directly with the school to facilitate activities that strengthen our community.
Grade Representatives encourage communication among families and assist faculty throughout the year, while Event Leads plan and carry out community events. The only fundraiser is the annual bake sale, with all proceeds dedicated to supporting faculty and staff appreciation. Thanks to the time and energy of our many volunteers, ESPO plays a vital role in making Emerson such a special place.
The mission of Emerson School is to provide a dynamic and nurturing learning environment that fosters empathy, communication, creativity, leadership, and above all, a lifelong love of learning.
We fulfill our mission with small class sizes, by providing individualized attention across a broad and rich, student-centered curriculum and through a committed, talented team of educators who help children achieve sustained academic success.
