Who We Are
Every parent, guardian, and staff person is automatically a member of the PTO at Charlestown School. We operate with a small PTO Board and a large group of parents and staff who contribute by attending meetings, sharing ideas, volunteering time, or chairing events. We believe that everyone has something to contribute, and that every contribution, whether big or small, helps make our school a wonderful learning community for our children.
