​​Home & School Association

We believe that a child’s success is based on a cooperative parent/teacher relationship,
and the SPES Home & School Association is a key way that parents can support our school.

Our mission is to create opportunities for families to come together as a school community along with the school staff.

Our goal is to provide financial support to the school and staff through fundraising campaigns and various events throughout the school year. Our financial support will provide materials and resources for the students inside the classroom as well as enhance their outdoor experiences.

Our keys to a successful year will be:
  • ​Respect 
  • Organization
  • Clear expectations
  • Accountability
  • Communication

Contact the Home and School Association at the following email: seasideparkhands@gmail.com.
