Enriching students' lives through parent and community involvement is the primary goal of the EWS Parents Association (PA). Through a variety of volunteer efforts, the PA provides opportunities for parents to have active roles in their children's academic and non-academic activities and to help establish a strong relationship between the home and the school. The PA maintains a strong relationship with the administration, faculty, and students. Through the PA, parents can become more effective partners in their children's educational enrichment and participate in a supportive network for themselves. The PA organizes and supports a wide range of events, fundraisers and activities for students, faculty and staff throughout the school year.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and liabilities are high compared with assets.
