About the PTSA


The B.F. Day PTSA is made up of volunteers from the B.F. Day Family, including parents, teachers, administrators, community leaders, volunteers, and friends of BF Day. We work for the success of each student learner by supporting their educational, social and emotional journey through various programs, and fundraising to meet the financial needs of these programs.

  • Fund and support hiring of much needed staff, like counselor and support teachers
  • Fund and support targeted social support programs for families of our students
  • Organize and support the after school enrichment program
  • Fund and support the Jumpstart program for Kindergarten
