Parent Community

Parent-Teacher Fellowship

The PTF brings SBA parents and teachers together to strengthen our school community through events, classroom support, faculty and staff appreciation, and fundraising for the programs that make SBA distinctive.

Whether you help plan a family night, volunteer at a game, coordinate a meal for staff, or simply show up and pray for our teachers, there is a place for every parent in the PTF. Involvement can be as frequent or as occasional as your schedule allows.

What the PTF Does

Family events. Back-to-school picnics, fall festivals, Christmas gatherings, and end-of-year celebrations that bring families together.

Faculty & staff appreciation. Meals, gifts, and notes of encouragement throughout the year to show our teachers how much they are valued.

Classroom & program support. Funding supplies, books, and special projects that enhance the student experience.

Volunteer coordination. A go-to way for parents to plug into the life of the school — athletics, arts, admissions events, and more.
