The mission of Belmar's PTO is to make our school a great place for our kids to thrive. We do this by raising money, and offering fun and educational assemblies, activities and programs that enhance our students learning experience throughout the school year. Belmar Elementary PTO works to bring together the parents and teachers of our students, our local businesses and community. This unique collaboration allows us to achieve our goals and expand them to meet even more specific needs of our students and school.
School boards, including Belmar’s, belong to a state organization, creatively known as the New Jersey School Boards’ Association. They are trying to do outreach to parents to educate them about how schools work and how parents can best advocate on behalf of their kids. They now have a webpage on their site specifically dedicated to parents. I’d like to get the information out to our PTO parents.
Attached are the PTO Minutes for the 2019-2020 school year
