Join Our Private Facebook Community

At Locust Grove Elementary, our PTO (Parent-Teacher Organization) is a vibrant team of parents, guardians, and teachers working hand-in-hand to create an even richer educational experience for every student. If you have a child at Locust Grove, you’re already a valued member — your interest and participation are what make our community so special!

Volunteer With The PTO

The Red Lion Area School District recognizes and values the talent, skills, and experience of community members that can help enrich student educational and extracurricular activities. In an effort to ensure the safety of our students, the District has established a volunteer policy that requires certain documentation from all of its volunteers. 

Donate to Locust Grove Elementary School Playground

Locust Grove Elementary PTO is launching a major fundraising initiative for our upcoming school years — and we need your help to bring it to life! We’re raising funds to provide our students and families with much-needed outdoor upgrades to make our playground area inclusive, accessible, and safe place for our children to grow and thrive.

Upcoming Events

Trunk or Treat & Fall Festival

Join us for the Locust Grove PTO on Saturday, October 25, 2025, from 2:00–5:00 PM at the school’s rear basketball court and playground area. Admission is just $5 per student (includes 3 raffle tickets!), while adults and children 3 and under are free.

The bookfair will be held during Parent-Teacher Conferences on Monday, November 3rd, and Tuesday, November 4th, with a special early student shopping time planned for Saturday, November 1st.
