PTO Membership 2026-27

Thank you to all the families that have already joined the PTO for the 2026-27 school year!   


PTO Membership costs $20 and is open to all parents, guardians, faculty & staff of WBMS.

Your PTO membership covers the entire family for one school year. Your membership helps the PTO provide benefits, programs, and materials to all WBMS students. As a PTO member, you will have access to our online family directory. Members are encouraged to attend PTO General Meetings and vote on any items that are presented for voting at the PTO General Meetings or online.

Please join today and support our school.

Volunteers help our school in countless ways. Each year, all HISD Volunteers in Public Schools (ViPs) are required to recertify through HISD's Raptor system. Please complete your certification so you will be ready to join in the fun at West Briar Middle School. Thank you for everything you do to help!


This certification is required to volunteer in the school, it is a quick training and form and will be valid for the whole school year.
