Families Connected Parent Advisory Group
In the 2017-2018 school year, BCHD and South Bay Families Connected convened the Families Connected Parent Advisory Group. This group, composed of parent representatives from Hermosa Beach City School District, Manhattan Beach Unified School District and Redondo Beach Unified School District, meets quarterly to discuss current youth-related issues and pertinent topics at individual school sites, district-wide and throughout the Beach Cities community.
The Parent Advisory Group’s role is to:
- Connect parents with resources, events and information
- Communicate with parents at their school
- Collaborate and bring back feedback and suggestions from parents, teachers and counselors to the Families Connected Parent Advisory Group
- Serve as a liaison between BCHD, PTA and each respective school site
