Parent Teacher Union (PTU)
What We Do
St. Bernadette’s Parent Teacher Union (PTU) is a volunteer group of parents who organize and support various school activities, fundraisers, and events, contributing resources and volunteer efforts to improve school facilities and programs. Additionally, the PTU advocates for educational improvements and helps create a nurturing and inclusive environment that promotes academic excellence and overall well-being for all students.
In recent years, the PTU has been able to support new books for the School Library, Chrome Books for the Junior High, Recess Equipment for the Playground, Scholarships for 8th graders entering high school, along with assisting with other school needs. The PTU has also worked on fundraising efforts to support Catholic Schools Week, Power of the Pen and many other programs that allow our children to grow as a Catholic School community.
