Parent associations and booster clubs are organizations established to support school programs or student groups. The School District appreciates the time, effort, and financial support that parent associations and booster clubs provide for our students.

According to the Financial and Program Cost Accounting and Reporting for Florida Schools (“Redbook”), “All organizations of the school, or organizations operating in the name of the school, that obtain money from the public shall be accountable to the board for receipt and expenditure of those funds in the manner prescribed by the board. If approved by the district school board, a school-based, direct-support organization as defined under section 1001.453, Florida Statutes (F.S.), may have all financial transactions accounted for in school internal funds.”
