Working together
Through key partnerships, we work to cooperate and coordinate with other organizations who have a vested interest in supporting the education of our students.
- Parents Advisory Council (PAC)
- Communities in Schools of Whatcom County (CIS)
- Whatcom Community Foundation
- Parent Organizations (PTA/PTSA/PTO)
Parent Partners
Involved parents in their own school communities, PTA/PTO members play a unique role in the culture and experiences of our schools. Countless volunteer hours are invested day after day, year after year, leaving a real and lasting impact. In an effort to facilitate the sharing of best practices across the district, and to minimize "recreating the wheel", the Foundation is pleased to sponsor the biannual Schoolhouse Talks sharing fairs organized by the Parent Advisory Council. We can also serve as a clearinghouse for information, reference and planning resources that are broadly relevant.
Please browse the list of shared files available (blue bar to the right) and borrow what is useful. As best practices rise to the top via PACS, working groups, or Schoolhouse Talks, we will be happy to add them here.
Working together we can leverage our collective know-how and experience, amplify our impact, and reap the rewards!
