Our PTO

Parent participation – from Board committees to book fairs – is central to Aleph Bet’s character and its success. The Aleph Bet Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) organizes myriad events and activities through the year and coordinates parent assistance based on parents’ interests, expertise, and availability.

• Serves students hot chocolate in January and hot lunch in February
