Somos PSV Parent Ambassadors

The benefits of being a Somos PSV Parent Ambassador include:

• increased networking opportunities & visibility among the Somos PSV community, in the school community, and with school leaders 

• development of leadership and advocacy skills in a small group setting 

• increased knowledge about DEIJ and SEL (social-emotional-learning) issues and the opportunity to engage intelligently around these areas

• the many tangible and intangible benefits of helping our community and all of our children

The Somos PSV Parent Ambassador Program is made up of volunteer parent leaders who are trained to engage around the program objectives which are to ensure:

​

• the school community's needs for information and support from Somos PSV are clear and communicated;

• the Somos PSV mission is communicated and demonstrated in the school community;

• that the school community is aware of upcoming Somos PSV events and similarly, Somos PSV is aware of school events,

• that Somos PSV events and activities are conceptualized & supported appropriately (e.g. volunteering in many capacities),

• that newly-enrolled families in the school know about Somos PSV as a resource and welcomed to the community,

• that Latinx teachers, administrators, faculty and staff know about Somos PSV and are welcomed to the community,

• that they serve as a resource for prospective families who want to learn more about the private school experience

• increased parent knowledge about social, emotional, cultural, and educational issues that specifically impact our community​

• Serving as a resource for prospective, newly-enrolled, and current families (being available to connect with prospective families to answer questions about the private school experience, school culture, and more either via an online platform or via direct email when requested)
