To show support for the school, parent/guardian attendance at either Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA) or School Advisory Committee (SAC) meetings is required. Boca Ciega High Fundamental SWAS has no meeting make-up policy. A parent/guardian must attend either a PTA or a SAC meeting each month. If circumstances arise which make it impossible for a parent to attend a required meeting, a representative (18 years or older, not representing another Boca Ciega High Fundamental SWAS family) may be sent.

If a parent needs to exercise this option, he/she must call the office of the SWAS Assistant Principal by the morning of the meeting day. It is the parent's responsibility to make the representative aware of all obligations. PTSA and SAC meetings are in the Main Auditorium at 6:30pm on different evenings each month (see meeting dates below). Attendance cards will not be given out after 6:45 and credit for attendance will not be granted. All students in attendance must sit with their parents and you must stay until the meeting is adjourned to receive credit for attendance. There are no exceptions since this is the Pinellas County School’s fundamental policy.

The procedure for unattended meetings is:

• One missed meeting = reminder letter will be mailed to the family.
• Two missed meetings = family will be placed on probation.
• Three missed meetings = referral to the Intervention and Appeals Committee (IAC).

If a family is reassigned for nonattendance of parent meetings, they may not reapply to any fundamental High School.
