Parent Council

In the Boston Public Schools we believe the best schools are the

ones that invite parents and students to become partners in

planning, leadership and development. Together we can ensure a

quality education for every child and better reflect the

communities we serve.

The School Parent Council

All schools should have a School Parent Council (SPC). The SPC brings all

parents in the school community together to support the school and advocate for

quality education.

Every parent or guardian of a BPS student is automatically a member of the

School Parent Council. The SPC works closely with the Governing Board to

review the school’s budget, recommend programs, sponsor events, solve

problems, and raise funds for special school activities.
