ABOUT BPO
The Batchelder Parent’s Organization (BPO) is a volunteer, parent-run, nonprofit 501(c)(3) entity. If you’re a parent and/or guardian of a student at the Batchelder School, then you are a voting member of the BPO.
The main goal of the BPO is to "enhance the student experience." That means we provide the school with funds, programs, resources and services that will enrich and maximize the education of every child, including field trips, on-site enrichment programs, science kit supplies, educational classroom supplies and school equipment like the enhancements to the playground new and innovative equipment PE, smart boards, Chrome Books, iPads, ukuleles and more!
