Interested in getting involved in the PTCC?
The Parent Teacher Community Council (PTCC) exists to support the students, faculty, parents and community through organized collaborative efforts. Participation in the PTCC is open to any parent/guardian with children attending GLOBE, GLOBE faculty and staff, and members of the greater community who are supportive of the vision and mission of The GLOBE Academy.
Most charter schools use a Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) or a PTCC structure, rather than a traditional Parent Teacher Association (PTA). This allows for flexibility and innovation, which helps serve an evolving charter school. It also means that GLOBE doesn’t have to follow the rules of a national organization, but can instead ensure that our structure is tailor-made to suit our school’s needs. GLOBE’s PTCC provides space for leaders to rise from the ‘bottom up,’ through service to the school, which means that all are welcome and everyone can find a way to get involved. Our PTCC is comprised of 5 Parent Action Committees (PACs), each made up of multiple workgroups. Check out the PTCC Leadership page and the PTCC Resources to learn more about the organization. |
PTCC Vision:
The PTCC is an engaged community that supports the learning environment and [unique] culture of GLOBE. PTCC Mission:
The PTCC will build collaborative partnerships amongst all stakeholders through fundraising and community events to promote open communications, enhance educational experiences, and develop learning opportunities to impact our greater community. |
"At GLOBE, we believe in action-based, inclusive parent and family involvement. With an "open-source" approach to gathering, channeling and empowering parent energy, our community can find the resources to resolve challenges, fulfill needs, and develop GLOBE’s potential.
