When I mentioned it at our November PTO meeting, there was interest in learning more about The Village of Brookland of Traditional Public Schools. One way to think of it is a community PTO of all of the traditional schools in our community, which includes Burroughs, with a goal of ensuring that all children in Brookland have the resources for a high-quality education and are receiving opportunities to thrive in their school and neighborhood. The group came out of a conversation with the Brookland PTO and their neighbors about ways to support each other and to cultivate a partnership between the school and the community.
You can learn more in an article that was written about the group last month, which can be found at http://thewash.org/2019/12/05/
