The Falk School PTO is a very active organization made up of committed parents and teachers who welcome all and work to encourage new members to participate in established activities as well as contribute new ideas.  There are many ways to become involved.  In addition to attending the General PTO meetings throughout the year, you may want to consider a position on a PTO Executive Committee , which meets monthly and votes on important issues.  You may choose to become a room parent or to help with one or more of the PTO-sponsored events that occur during the school year.

Newsletter and Handbook

FalkTalk, the PTO newsletter, is produced bi-monthly and is an important way to keep informed of school and PTO events.  Additionally, the Falk School Handbook and the Directory, which is published early in the school year, will contain valuable detailed information and contacts.

If you are a new family at Falk School and you have questions, Martina Wells, New Family Representative for the 2011-2012 school year, is available to ensure a smooth transition to our school.  Please, fee free to contact Martina at (412) 681-4603 or martinawells@verizon.net, or contact Pattie Mareda, president at pmareda@verizon.net or by phone at 412-321-0981.  You may also find it helpful to read our PTO document entitled, What is Falk? (Pdf)  It includes important information about the school’s philosophy, operational concerns, and daily procedures, as well as some other information regarding the PTO, its functions and events.
