BMES PTA website: bmespta.membershiptoolkit.com BMES PTA email: barlowmountainpta@gmail.com District Web Address: www.ridgefield.org BMES PTA has created an email list to help distribute information throughout the BMES community. We do not share or sell these email addresses and use them only for BMES PTA business.
The BMES PTA regrets that it will only include information concerning PTA programs, BOE information and Ridgefield Public Schools information through this email communication tool. Although there are many deserving charities and causes for which we personally are sympathetic, we cannot inundate our PTA members with items that are not directly school related. We thank you in advance for understanding our unique position.
