Parent Teacher Organization
Welcome to the Bellbrook-Sugarcreek PTO
The Sugarcreek Parent Teacher Organization is a volunteer organization that maintains a close working relationship between parents, teachers/staff and students. It is our goal to enhance the educational experience by supporting the students and teaching staff through fundraising efforts to provide additional equipment, technology, educational resources, educational services and special projects. A strong PTO is evidence of parental interest/support and does ensure a better school environment for our students. Meetings are held on the 2nd TUESDAY of every month.
Welcome PTO Members
Did you know that by simply having your student in the Bellbrook-Sugarcreek School System you are already a member of the PTO? As a parent in this educational community, we share a common goal with our teachers - to ensure our students have the best, most effective and fun learning environment possible.
You Can Make a Difference - How Can You get INVOLVED and Support the PTO?
Volunteering and participating in the various fundraisers throughout the school year! Helping to support the Direct Donation Campaigns alone directly impact YOUR STUDENT. Every bit of supports counts and helps our PTO purchase needed technology, educational materials, classroom supplies, field trips and more which have been reduced and/or eliminated due to budget cuts! All profits go to benefit our students and our award-winning school district. The success of the Direct Donation Campaign -- soon to be Fill the Nest -- can significantly reduce the number of small fundraising activities throughout the school year. So, jump on board and let’s strive for 100% participation!!!
PTO Information
The Sugarcreek PTO is a group of parents, teachers and staff working together for the betterment of the children and our 4 schools. As a parent of a child in the Sugarcreek School District, you are automatically a member of the organization. One of the KEY elements of our organization which guarantees our success is parent involvement. Research shows that "students with parents who get involved tend to achieve higher test scores, have more positive attitudes and behaviors, and that the schools they operated in were successful and effective." Please come and be a part of your school district's PTO and together we can "Soar To Great Heights."
Ultimately, the goal is to form PTO committees at each school. This would allow for more fundraising opportunities. Currently, the executive board and the building reps do all of the behind-the-scenes work for all school events and fundraising. Most of us have either a part-time or full-time job, so we can only commit to a certain number of volunteer hours. We wish we could do more, so we are hoping the expansion of the PTO will help considerably.
As always, we truly enjoy volunteering for such an amazing school district! Please feel free to reach out to us at any time. We are looking forward to a great school year!

The Future of Our PTO: Growing Together
Our goal is to build PTO committees at each school to expand our fundraising efforts and better support students and staff. Right now, event planning and fundraising are managed by a small group of volunteers. By involving more parents, we can share ideas, lighten the load, and do even more for our schools. Every helping hand makes a big impact!
Looking Forward to a Great Year
We love volunteering for such an amazing school district and are excited for the year ahead! If you have any questions or want to get involved, feel free to reach out to us anytime at bellbrook.pto@gmail.com
Stock the Break Room events for all schools take place in the fall, as well as a Teacher Appreciation Luncheon for all schools in the spring.
