It's not unusual to have one umbrella PTO, particularly when the schools are all on the same campus. In that case, you would have a rep or coordinating committee for each school, reporting back to the larger group. The challenge is that it can be hard to balance four different schools. On the other hand, you can better share resources and also make sure each school gets a more equal share of attention.
We've seen this go both ways -- PTOs consolidating for the reasons you mentioned, and also PTOs breaking into smaller groups to serve schools individually. Often that's because of a feeling that people want to volunteer for and fundraise for their own kids' school and not have to share resources with other schools they feel little attachment to.
