How much does it cost per member?
The membership fee for BRHS PTSO is only $35 per family, but what we give back to the community is much more. Last year only 13% of families joined the PTSO, but through fundraising efforts, we were able to spend on average, $17 per student on educational support and enrichment programs.​​
Where does the money go?
TEACHER REQUESTS: Some items or events that are not in the yearly school budget and would not be possible without the help of the BRHS PTSO. Some examples: 50th Anniversary Purchases, White Board, DECA / International Career Development, Rolling teacher/student desks, Science Olympiad, Scholastic Art, Microwaves for students, Rise Against Hunger, Conference and Competition.
PROGRAMS to enrich the education and school life of the students of BRHS, including the Freshman/New Student Welcome Reception, Parent/Student College Preparatory Programs, Student Mentor Program (Sigma Tau Sigma), Project Graduation Support.
