Major Expenses

Major Expenses are large, one time purchases that the PTO makes for the students at Millburn Central School. 

Suggestions for Major Expenses are proposed by PTO members at our meetings. After being researched, these proposals are put to a vote at the regular monthly PTO meeting.  Your PTO membership gives you voting rights!

Below are examples of recent Major Expenses:

2006-2007

Student Enhancement Fund

 Money raised by the Millburn Central PTO is used for the Student Enhancement Fund.  Last year, the PTO allotted $12.00 per student to be used for field trips, speakers and special projects.

We're pleased to announce that this amount was raised to $15 per student for the 2008-2009 school year!
