PTO

The BHA PTO is a unique parent teacher organization different from many of the other organizations. The Brighter Horizons Academy PTO group were responsible for many of the volunteering activities that this school was built on. It is not intended to be a boast for the PTO, but only to extend the credit to the parents and teachers, in general, who made the school into what it is today.

The BHA PTO strives to continually engage the parents and teachers in a cooperative manner in the interest of providing a sense of wholeness to the students at large on campus. Without them, our activities would become null – it is only through this that Brighter Horizons Academy prides itself on the fact of being a BHA family, because it was the families who came together and jointly brought this school together.

Our Primary Goal

Our primary objective as a PTO is to provide our School with funds, educational programs, resources and services that will enrich and maximize the Islamic education and values of our children. To meet this goal we need your help. We need to raise funds as well as volunteers like you to make it happen.

Achievements From Previous Years

The PTO sponsored many activities such as annual Eid celebration, Eid store, Sports Picnic, Winter Challenge Party, Fajr & Qiyam Programs, Coffee with the Leadership events, Parent Workshops and

Teachers appreciation Week. We also donated microscopes for Science lab and laptops for juniors. In order to cover the expenses we raised funds through our monthly Lunch/bake sale, Jummah lunch program, Box tops, Penny drive, Event fundraisers and the Carnival.
