PTF

The Parent Teacher Fellowship, PTF, is the parent organization that seeks to serve the school, students, teachers, and families. The purpose of the PTF is to serve Christ by serving the school; to promote, enhance and enrich Christian education by providing an organized force of volunteer parents to support the mission and the programs of the school. There are two PTF boards: Lower School PTF and Upper School PTF. Each PTF is focused on serving the teachers and families of their perspective campus. However, both PTF boards work closely together to serve Briarwood as a whole.

PTF Missions Statement

What is the mission statement of the PTF? Each PTF board member assumes specific responsibilities to support our mission.

Seek to glorify God through word and action in support of BCS.
Work to build unity in the school and community through purposeful meetings, personal interaction, and written communication that enhances the spiritual and learning environment at BCS.
Seek opportunities to support and encourage the teachers and staff at BCS through tangible actions and regular prayer.
Seek opportunities to support BCS in the community at large as a beacon of God’s love and grace.
Use fundraising to help accomplish these goals and to supplement school funding in special areas of need. These areas include school materials and other classroom resources.

What does the PTF do? The PTF provides monthly Teacher Appreciation lunches to encourage our teachers and faculty, facilitates a Prayer and Mercy ministry for our school family, and contributes to the provision of Wish List items from the school such as Smart Boards, text books, technology items, and furniture for the common areas.

Each PTF also has campus specific committees which serve the school. Some examples include:

Lower Campus - Organizes and operates the annual Fall Festival and hosts other fundraisers such as The Pumpkin Patch. Serves the teachers and students with various roles including in the library, copy room, laminating, and the Spelling Bee.

Upper Campus - Supports special days such as President’s Day, World Day, Jr High Socials, Homecoming events, and a Graduation reception. The Upper School PTF also fundraises to gift the upper school teachers and faculty at Christmas, Birthdays, and the End of the Year.

There are many more ways the PTF supports the school and families. There is a place for everyone to be involved!!
