About the Ben-Hem PTO
The Bennett-Hemenway PTO is a group of parents and caregivers who work with teachers, staff, and community members to support our students and strengthen the Ben-Hem community. Every Ben-Hem family is welcome to participate—there is no membership fee or required time commitment.
Our Mission
The Bennett-Hemenway PTO is a group of volunteer parents who partner closely with teachers and community members to support our school and students.
We raise funds to supply materials, sponsor cultural arts and STEM programs, organize social functions, and provide scholarships.
Our goal is to connect families, staff, and students to create a strong, positive school community.
Come to a PTO Meeting
PTO meetings are open to all Ben-Hem parents and caregivers. You do not need to be a board member, hold an official role, or commit to volunteering. Come to hear updates, share an idea, help plan an upcoming event, or simply learn more about what the PTO does.
Meetings are generally held in the Ben-Hem library, with an online option when available.
Topics may include finances, upcoming events, fundraising, volunteer needs, and new ideas.
Childcare may be available for selected meetings and will be noted in the event details.
Attend once, occasionally, or whenever a topic interests you.
