Briargrove Elementary Parent Teacher Organization
We are a registered 501-3c organization of parents, caregivers and guardians, whose sole purpose is to support the school and community of Briargrove Elementary. We help craft a school that fits the needs of our students, through community events and fundraising. All parents and caregivers of BGE students can join us! Our general meetings are held monthly during the school year. The voting block of our organization is our Board of Directors, made up of the Executive committee and the chairs of every committee. We are strong because of the commitment of so many of our parents, teachers and administrators at our school. Reach out today to find a volunteer position that fits your strengths and commitment level.
