It takes a village.

​

​     Hello, I'm Jerry Orzel the PTA President, they say it takes a village to raise a child.  I believe that to be true.  Your child has a village at home with parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, aunts, and uncles.  Your child's village is much bigger than that, your part of the OBE village.  With caring teachers, office staff, school way cafe, custodians and the PTA.  The PTA's mission and goal is to see that every student has the opportunity to reach their full potential, to bring parents together and ensure every child has a fair and equal elementary school experience.  You, the parents are already helping by being here.  If you volunteer in your child's class, your helping. Becoming a PTA member your helping.  We have many great things plan this year, but it will not happen on it's own.  We the village, OBE, and you can make it happen, for them.
