Barnsdale Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) promotes and encourages the close relationship between school and home. By sponsoring activities and events, fulfilling teacher wish lists, and funding Art Enrichment and Birthday Books, Barnsdale PTO supplements the rich PreK and Kindergarten experience for our students.
Each Friday during the school year, we send out a combined School and PTO Newsletter via email. These emails provide details of upcoming events and activities, including important action Items and curriculum announcements. If you are not receiving these emails, please complete the Sign-Up Form here, contact us at barnsdalepto@102ptc.net, or contact Laura Dunn in the school office to be added to the list.
Teachers have their own communications vehicles to provide information specific to their classroom issues and activities. School District 102 sends email communications about issues affecting the entire district.
If you have questions about PTO related issues, please contact us at barnsdalepto@102ptc.net.
If you have questions related to information about the school, please contact Principal Allison Sobotka at sobotkaal@d102.k12.il.us.
