About the Merrimac PTO

Who We Are

Merrimac PTO is a group of parent, staff and community volunteers who organize fundraisers and sponsor school events to benefit the Pre-K through 6th grade students of Merrimac, Massachusetts, at the Sweetsir and Donaghue schools.

Our goals are to encourage interactions between family and school and work with teachers, staff and the community at large to improve our children’s educational experience.
