District Planning for Progress

Pinellas County Schools hosted a series of community meetings across the district to share school-specific data and gather feedback on population and enrollment trends, facility planning and school utilization.

Get Involved

The Bauder Boosters is a fund-raising parent organization that provides the funds for many Bauder programs and additional materials. The Boosters are elected to the Bauder Booster Board in the spring.

School Advisory Council (SAC)

SAC is a group of parents, staff members and administrators that meets on the third Thrusday of each month. The purpose of the SAC is to act as an advisory to the principal and oversee the School Improvement Plan. All parents are welcome to attend as a guest. The meeting starts at 6:00 p.m. in the school Forum.

Volunteers

All parents are encouraged to volunteer in the classroom and in various activities around the school. In order to volunteer, it is necessary for parents to register as a school volunteer. Background checks are done on all Pinellas County School volunteers. Some volunteers may need Level II clearance depending on what volunteer activities they participate in. Volunteers must sign in and wear a name tag each time they volunteer in the school. Siblings are not allowed to accompany volunteers due to district insurance regulations.

When families and schools work together, students thrive. Pinellas County Schools invites you to take an active role in your child’s educational journey—whether that means becoming a volunteer, serving as a mentor, or connecting with our Strategic Partnerships team to explore even more ways to support our schools.
