SCHOOL LEVEL PARTICIPATION (PTO)
Seaside's Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is all about making new friends, connecting, sharing, and communing. If you want to take part in building an enlivened parent community, support and model a culture of service and care for the children, participate in creatively developing resources to make the school a better place, or gain diverse perspectives on school issues and community, then this is for you. If you simply want to connect and share ideas, then the PTO is for you, too! All parents are welcome, always. We work in in collaboration with, and in support of, teachers, administration, and the Board.

BOARD LEVEL PARTICIPATION
Every child deserves to attend an excellent school. Public charter schools are governed by independent boards, and great charter schools need great boards. Serving on a charter school board is an excellent way to have a substantial, and ongoing, impact on a school and in your community.
Having the right skills and experience around the board table is essential to effective governance. Seaside School Consortium school board seeks to have the right mix of people who bring the skills, perspectives, experiences, and networks the board needs to achieve its goals. Check out more on how we run our Board at the Governance page.
