The easiest way to support Desert Mountain High School is to join as a PTO member family.

Through your generous donations, the PTO provides eNews, additional teacher and departmental funding, staff appreciation lunches, bottled water for the nurse's office, facility improvements, support for DMHS clubs and tutoring programs, support for Senior events, 4 Senior scholarships, and much, much more! 

Last year, a portion of your PTO dollars paid for this much needed, multifunctional, modular library furniture!

We know how busy you are, but if you are willing to be more involved, we would love to have you!

Whether you prefer to be in-school or helping remotely; interacting with lots of people or organizing in the background; helping steadily throughout the year or jumping in for just one project, there is a role for you and we NEED you!

2. Join the PTO Board! We still have an opening for Co-VP of Project Prevention Graduation. (Click here to email info@dmpto.org)
