What is Burke PTO?
Burke PTO is the parent volunteer organization at Burke. We provide support for teachers as well as educational programs that benefit all Burke students. Being a PTO member offers parents the opportunity to be more informed about their child’s education. Members donate time and talents by chairing a committee, volunteering at an event, attending meetings, or simply by paying dues.
Why Burke PTO is so important!
