Parents, Teachers, Friends (PTF)

A key aspect of Shalom School’s mission is to provide students with an outstanding education in a nurturing environment, and it has been shown that students achieve more when parents and teachers work together. This is where our Parent, Teacher, Friends (PTF) organization plays an important role.

The purpose of PTF is to foster and encourage community through special programs, meaningful events and parent participation opportunities.

All Shalom School families are part of the PTF and the PTF Board invites you to participate in PTF meetings and all of our great events. Shalom School parents can earn volunteer hours by attending PTF meetings, supporting classroom and school programming, and helping to plan and run PTF events.

Shalom School wouldn’t be the impressive school it is without the active participation of our families.
