What is the A.P.G. Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA)?

The PTSA holds community events and fundraisers to help fund school programs, student supplies (such as P.E. uniforms), student events, teachers’ continued education, and special projects that the school budget cannot cover. 100% of funds donated to the APG PTSA go directly to our school. More information about our giving drive, PTSA membership, and upcoming events are on our website (https://apg-sfusd-ca.schoolloop.com/ptsa) and will be coming home in the First Day Packet and weekly emails.

Upcoming Events

• Help our teachers get ready for school – Week of August 14–18 (date TBD once teachers are back at school)
