PTO
Mission Statement: The Bethany PTO exists to facilitate communication between families and the school through community events, fundraisers and teacher/staff appreciation and support. The PTO is not possible without the generous contribution of time and resources from our wonderful community of families. Parent involvement makes all the difference in our school. We recognize there are many commitments in our lives that demand time and energy and we’d like to thank you in advance for considering making volunteering for a few PTO initiatives one of them.
Listed below are some of the programs and activities scheduled for the coming year. We will provide communication for these as well as others as they get closer.
