​Who we are:

Picture
The Margaret Beeks Elementary (MBE) Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) is made up of volunteers in the Beeks community - parents, teachers, staff, and community members. Our goal is to support our school and teachers and to strengthen the relationship between parents/guardians, teachers, staff, and students to help MBE succeed. We also help by providing support for the school's educational, recreational, and infrastructure needs. But best of all: it is a great way to get to know other MBE families and school staff!

Please visit the volunteer page for more details on how you can get involved.  Facebook® members can join our Facebook® page to receive ongoing updates, or you can simply email us at mbepto@gmail.com to get involved!
Back up this year: Follow us on Twitter!  

How do I become a PTO Member?  

To join the PTO, return this membership form to your child's teacher. 
You can also send us an email at mbepto@gmail.com and we will get you added to the email list.

Membership benefits include: 
 - A voice in deciding PTO priorities for this academic year. (Only members can vote at meetings.)  
 - Monthly email updates for school events and volunteer needs.
