Schenk Shark Community

Thank you to everyone who helped us have an amazing school year.

For the 2025-2026 school year, we were able to raise $8,777 in donations for Schenk PTO initiatives and we brought in $9,650 in grant funding to support the Schenk School Garden and Garden Educator program.
We also were able to host 6 Teacher Appreciation Events, supported MSCR’s Multicultural Night, and we offered the Madison Children’s Museum Family Fun Night, Harvest Hustle Fun Run, Schenk Family Fun Night, and a School Garden Day Celebration!

THANK YOU for showing up to support the Schenk Community with treats for teachers, pledges for the Harvest Hustle, volunteer time, and so much more. We look forward to another amazing year together next year.
And we hope everyone has an amazing summer!

Join us June 19th at the Rally Madison game. ⚽️

For each purchased through our link, $5 will go to the Schenk Elementary PTO to help us give back to our students, staff, and classrooms.
