WHO WE ARE

The Bishop School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is a group of parents, teachers and community members that strive to enrich our children's educational experience and build community spirit at Bishop. We accomplish this by funding events and activities throughout the year and by supplementing resources available to the school and our teachers. The Bishop community was very generous last year and the PTO raised about $71,000 last school year! This money was used to fund school-wide and grade-level enrichment programs, Bishop classrooms, teachers and administration, school improvement projects, and other community initiatives such as the Bishop garden.
