Purpose


Booster and parent organizations are composed of parents, community members, and staff members coming together for the purpose of supporting specific school activities for the benefit of students, such as athletic teams, debate teams, and musical groups. Such groups are commonly referred to as school-connected organizations. They are an important means of connecting parents and other community members with the curricular and co-curricular activities of students.

Forms

Please keep all booster and parent-led organization information current on this spreadsheet.  Use it when a club disbands, a new club is formed or there is a change in officers or positions within the club.
