The PTO consists of families and staff members of Frank V. Bergman Elementary School who have completed a membership form and have paid a nominal annual fee. The PTO is managed by a Board which is composed of PTO members who are elected as Officers. The Board includes the Officer positions of president, vice president, secretary and treasurer. The membership meets on a monthly basis throughout the school year and manages the organizational and financial aspects of all PTO functions. The PTO operates on an annual budget based on input from a planning session held during a spring meeting. The annual budget is voted on by members at the first monthly PTO meeting in the fall. The money used to sponsor PTO activities is raised through PTO dues and annual fundraising events. The PTO sponsors a wide variety of programs and events. Events are for social, educational and fundraising purposes. The PTO also purchases products and supplies to increase educational opportunities for the students. The achievements of the Bergman PTO can be measured in the cooperative spirit with which parents and teachers work together to share their care and concern for Bergman’s students. The PTO's success can be seen in the students’ appreciation for their school, their teachers, and the opportunities given to them. Note: When faced with a worry or concern about your child's education, it is always best to go directly to the source with a personal contact. Thus, you are asked to first contact your child's teacher. If the concern is not resolved through this direct contact, next please contact our Principal Steve Koch at 587-2865.
