We Help For A Cause

Congratulations on becoming a member of one of the most vibrant and impactful PTO groups around! As a parent or guardian of a BMES student, you are already an integral part of this amazing community! We are thrilled to welcome back familiar faces and extend a warm greeting to those joining us for the first time. Your involvement with the BMES community is invaluable, and together, we can achieve so much more!

We live by the motto: “Together, We Can Do More!” and that sentiment is at the heart of everything we do.

Now, allow us to introduce you to our PTO and give you a brief overview of our purpose and goals:

  1. Enriching each child’s education at Black Mountain Elementary School (BMES) by providing the necessary human resources and financial support through a cooperative effort between the community, teachers, and parents.
  2. Creating a supportive atmosphere where BMES staff can nurture academic, social, emotional, and physical growth for each and every child.
  3. Collaborating with the school staff and Cave Creek Unified School District (CCUSD) to enhance the educational and developmental opportunities available to BMES students.
  4. Promoting open communication and cooperation among parents, BMES staff, students, Site Council, and the wider CCUSD community.

We value communication and encourage you to reach out to us anytime with your thoughts, ideas, or questions. You can contact us at Blackmountainpto93@gmail.com, and we promise to be responsive and attentive.

Throughout the school year, we eagerly look forward to getting to know each and every one of you better. Together, we will create an enriching and nurturing environment for our children to thrive. Welcome to the BMES family!

Sincerely,
Your BMES 2023-24 PTO Executive Board
