Benton Community PTO

Please visit the following link to sign up to help pass out our fundraising products on Wednesday, March 23.  There are a total of six spots needing to be filled at each center (Atkins, Norway, and Keystone).  We need this support from 3:00 - 6:00 PM to help parents at pickup.  It is extremely organized, so the volunteers will simply have to help parents find their pile of product and help call parents as 6:00 draws near.  Please email bentoncommunityPTO@gmail.com  with questions. Thanks for your help!  FUNDRAISER PICKUP 

The BCPTO voted tonight to allow an additional $50 reimbursement from our BCPTO for teachers to use toward classroom expenses.  If you attend the April or May meeting and bring a receipt, the BCPTO will reimburse any Benton Community elementary teacher up to $50 for classroom supplies, on top of the $50 already allotted for each teacher.  Email BentonCommunityPTO@gmail.com with questions!
