Seeking PPS-SF Parent Ambassadors! Help Families Connect Virtually to School Communities.

SFUSD enrollment applications are due February 5 and many families may need to make decisions about schools without the opportunity to visit or interact directly with school staff or families. Please consider stepping in to support families by email, phone, or video chat.

Help us help parents and families. Spread the word about your public school!

Any SFUSD parent can relate to feeling overwhelmed in the process of choosing schools. PPS-SF Parent Ambassador Program is a resource families can use to speak to a parent or caregiver currently at the school. Being a Parent Ambassador is a small commitment but is extremely helpful for families.

What does a PPS-SF parent ambassador do?

  • Contact parents who reach out by phone or email within a few days of receiving the request.

  • Share information about their schools with prospective parents.

  • Provide honest feedback about a school’s strengths and how the school meets its challenges.

  • Refer difficult questions to school staff, other parents, or back to PPS-SF.

It's not a big commitment. Depending on the number of requests and the number of ambassadors in a school, we may connect an ambassador with up to 3 to 5 parents in a year. 

Parents for Public Schools of San Francisco does not post or share the ambassador's contact information with anyone at any time.
