The Fairview Parent Teacher Organization (FPTO) automatically includes all parents and teachers. There are no dues or membership fees. Monthly meetings are held at the school, generally the second Wednesday of the month at 9:15 a.m.

At the meetings members are informed of various committee and school activities, required voting is done, and occasional speakers are invited.

FPTO fundraising projects support publishing a monthly newsletter, the school directory, special student academic events such as the Traveling Art Gallery, Science Fair, Math Pentathlon, Music Box, Great Expectations, Pittsburgh Symphony, and Carnegie Art Museum field trips and speakers for the FPTO meetings.

In addition, the FPTO coordinates parent volunteer activities at Fairview and sponsors family-oriented events such as the holiday fair, ice cream social, international night, and fun fair. All parents and teachers are encouraged to participate in FPTO activities.
