Parent Council
Parent Council is a volunteer organization, acting as a channel for communication and support for the administration and staff at BIA Charter School. We actively work to develop a deep sense of community among the parents.
​
As the primary educators of our children, parental involvement in school activities is strongly encouraged. Helping to make them successful is a shared responsibility for us all, and we treasure this partnership. Every parent of a current student is automatically a member of the BIA Parent Council.
​
The Parent Council supports BIA Charter School by:
-
Promoting unity, cooperation, and involvement within the BIA Family.
-
Fostering open and accurate communication between parents and the school.
-
Sponsoring events that promote community and raise funds for our school to enrich our children’s experience beyond the school’s operating budget.
​
Regardless of the amount of time, talent, or treasure you have to give - there is a place for you to become involved in the life of our school through Parent Council. Whether as a member of the Parent Council Leadership Team, a committee chairperson, or a classroom volunteer, our school succeeds when parents are involved.​
Members of the Parent Council Leadership Team are elected from the school community and, for the most part, serve one year terms. Nominations are solicited in the spring of each year with the new leadership team being seated on or about April 1.
