Our Parent Teacher Organization complements the work of our educators. Funds raised by the PTO are used to enhance the children's school experience, going towards the purchase of extras like playground equipment, digital cameras, ipods and laptop computers. The PTO also sponsors many co-curricular activities. By engaging entire families in its chesed progects, the PTO bolsters the key values of Ben Porat Yosef.
Through PTO-sponsored events for children and parents, our families develop friendships that span different grades and hometowns. The PTO is the gateway for parents, faculty and staff to unite as one family that revolves around our children. We actively encourage all of our parents to get involved. Our Parent Teacher Organization can be reached at PTO@BenPoratYosef.org.
