Get Involved

BLES PTO loves our volunteers!

Check out all the ways you can get involved and support the Berkeley Lake Elementary community.

Whether you have lots of time to dedicate or only a few hours during the whole school year – we have something important for you to do!

Here’s how to volunteer:

1. Volunteer for any of our yearly events, we have small one hour slots available for most events. Click here  

2. Step up to a Vice President Role, we have two openings! And we’re already looking for our 2027/28 Board! It’s a fun way to help out at the school! Email us at info@blespto.org We’ll send you more information. 

Guess what? You’re already a member.

Starting with the 2019-2020 school year, all families with a student enrolled at BLES are automatically a member of our Parent Teacher Organization (PTO).

Being a member, active volunteering, one-time or ongoing donations – whatever you can do – makes a BIG difference for our students!

Since we’re not taking in membership dues, we are asking for donations to offset those funds. You can make a credit card donation during any of our school events at the Spirit Wear Table.


Give on MyPayments Plus!
If you have a student enrolled at BLES, you’re a voting member of our Parent Teacher Organization (PTO).

In lieu of a formal membership enrollment, we’d like for everyone who can to donate to the PTO so we can continue to provide financial support to our school. We’ve added two options for PTO donations on MyPaymentsPlus – the place where you already go to sign annual paperwork and pay for meals. Give to our general PTO fund to help pay for activities like Bear Scare, STEM Night, cultural arts for each grade level and teacher supply reimbursements. The suggested donation is $15 per family. However, we thank you for any amount you can contribute. Look for PTO in the “other payments” section. 

Thanks to those of you who’ve already given generously!
