Parent Volunteers

PTMO (Parent Teacher Ministry Organization)

Throughout each school year, SJNCS receives substantial support from its parent organization, the PTMO (Parent Teacher Ministry Organization). This talented group of parents provides countless hours of time, talent, and treasure to our school.

We would love to have you be a part of PTMO! Please contact President Erica Morales if you have any ideas or would like to volunteer.

A note from our PTMO President

Hello St. John Neumann Catholic School Families,

My name is Erica Morales, and I am honored to serve as your PTMO President for the 2025–2026 school year.

This is our family’s fourth year at SJNCS and our ninth year in Knoxville’s Catholic school system. Originally from Puerto Rico, I’ve called Knoxville home for the past 15 years, and my husband and I are blessed to have four children currently enrolled at St. John Neumann.

The PTMO is here to strengthen our school community through service, support, and shared faith. I wholeheartedly encourage all parents and family members to get involved—whether it’s volunteering, sharing your gifts, or simply offering ideas. Your time and input help make SJNCS a special place for all our children.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m always open to your thoughts, suggestions, and prayers as we work together to make this a wonderful school year!

With gratitude and blessings,
Erica Morales
