About the BES PTO

Our Purpose

As the Parent-Teacher Organization for Bellefonte Elementary School (BES), our mission is to promote the welfare of BES children at home and school and in the community, to create a stronger bridge between children's school and home lives, and to build engaging connections with the local community.  

 

We accomplish this through education support, programs, and events direct toward parents, teachers, and the general community of Bellefonte. We work with the school to provide quality educational experiences and opportunities to all students. 

What We Do

As a PTO, we plan and host fun activities and programs; provide educational enrichment support; aid and celebrate our school community; and raise money to support our programs, initiatives, students and teachers and staff!
