Policy 4115 - School-Support Organizations

The board encourages the formation of a parent-teacher association or similar organization at each school building for the purpose of providing an opportunity through which parents, teachers and students may unite their efforts and interest to enhance the school program. In schools where no such organization exists, another parent group can be recognized by the school principal as the official body through which parents, staff and students may unite their efforts for similar purposes. 

Booster clubs and/or special interest organizations (non-profit organizations) may be formed to support and strengthen specific activities conducted within the school or district. All such groups shall receive the approval of the school principal or designee in order to be recognized as a booster club and/or special interest organization. Staff participation, cooperation and support are encouraged in such recognized organizations.
