Why Attend a PTA Meeting


Our PTA is one of the cornerstones of the BCS community. We work collaboratively on community-building and fundraising and there are never enough people involved to accomplish all that we’d like.

By connecting with our school’s work, you will get to know your child/ren’s teachers and school leadership as you add your unique perspectives to our school.

Here are some highlights of why attending a PTA is beneficial:

  • Learn about upcoming events and activities
  • Develop closer relationships with school leadership and other BCS families
  • Provide feedback to benefit all of our children
  • Hear about ways to get involved and upcoming volunteer opportunities

The PTA only works if all of us come together! Please join us at one of our upcoming meetings.

We are crew, not passengers.
