Spirit Rock
Welcome to the Spirit Rock signup sheet! Celebrate your child's birthday or send a positive shout-out by reserving our spirit rock. Please choose a date to reserve the spirit rock.
Please adhere to the guidelines below:
- The Spirit Rock will be reserved through wesleychapelpto.com ONLY. Signups are on a first come first serve basis. While we wish everyone would be able to get their child's actual birthday or other special day, that may not always be an option. Please do not contact the PTO if you were not able to get your preferred date.
- The Spirit Rock is rented for $10 a day. Payment is due at the time of signup on the PTO website.
- The reservation is for one school day starting at 3:00 p.m. on the night prior to the sign up date. (example: if you sign up for April 24, then you may decorate the rock starting at 3:00 pm on April 23 - the person that has April 25th can start at 3:00 pm on April 24th, etc)
- If the rock is painted over by someone, it is not the PTO or school's responsibility. Wesley Chapel Elementary PTO reserves the right to remove any content, message or language from the Spirit Rock that is deemed inappropriate or not of a positive nature.
- The family painting the rock assumes liability for any individual or member of the group who may be injured, or who may incur clothing or other personal property damage.
- Families must furnish their own labor, paint, and supplies. Only the rock may be painted.
- The best paint to use is spray paint. Don't worry about getting expensive paint, the cheap stuff works great! Remember, latex paint or paint that is rolled on will take longer to dry. Do not ever paint on any surface but the rock.
- In order to allow everyone a chance to paint the rock, no consecutive days will be allowed.
- If you have any questions, please contact us at wesleychapelpto@gmail.com. Please do not contact the school.
2024-2025 dates are available on a first come first serve basis. Happy Painting!

Why join the PTO?
100% of your donation goes into our school! During the 2020-2021 school year, the PTO was able to provide online learning programs such as IXL, which every grade level uses. The costs to purchase these classroom resources total $6,500. In addition, the PTO spent approximately $6,000 to provide cameras to teachers to support online learning. Furthermore, we support our teachers by purchasing additional cleaning items for their classrooms. This is a portion of what the PTO provides throughout the year in addition to the hundreds of volunteer hours.
For the 2021-2022 school year the PTO is looking to help our school with outdoor school improvements, educational resources and technological advances that will benefit the education of our students. The PTO will continue to provide IXL for students to access at home and in school.
Membership Matters!
1. The PTO (Parent-Teacher Organization) is a non-profit organization that supports the faculty, students and families of WCES. Joining the PTO doesn’t mean you will be joining the board or committing to volunteering. By paying your membership, you will provide financial support for PTO funded activities. It also gives you the option to vote on important decisions.
2. The PTO is for everyone! Our volunteers are mothers, fathers and those who fill those roles. We have a wide range of volunteers who: stay-at-home; work part-time to full-time; have little ones at home, preschoolers, high schoolers and/or college students; are continuing their own education; and more. We welcome help from the families of our children at our various events, classroom activities, committees and fundraisers throughout the year.
3. Joining the PTO does not mean you are obligated to spend all your free time with us. You can help out as much or as little as you like. Even helping at just one event per year benefits the school immensely. You can help out at the school, or at home, whatever suits your schedule.
