Hear from parents in our video, "Why I Love My Public School"



Welcome to Parents for Public Schools — San Francisco

Our Mission

Parents for Public Schools -- San Francisco (PPS-SF) is a network of parents working together to build and ensure quality schools for all San Francisco children.

We do this by providing parent-to-parent information, news and networking and by developing parent leaders at the school and district level.

 


About our video

PPS Parent Ambassadors often share "Why I love my public school" with prospective parents. We produced this video to share their enthusiasm with a wider community.

This video was filmed, edited and translated by Baseball Rodent Productions, 2007 Balboa High School graduates Max Schreiber, Alfredo Sabillon and Venna Louie. Special thanks to PPS Member Dana Woldow for her support and help in creating this video. See more work by Baseball Rodent Productions on YouTube, including a video produced for PPS on Parent Involvement.
