Sylvania Schools Parent Organization (SSPO)

Mission: SSPO is an umbrella organization comprised of representatives from all of the Sylvania Schools Parent groups.  It aims to tackle issues within the Sylvania School District that are beyond the scope of any one parent organization.

Participation in the SSPO: Each school’s parent organization is charged with selecting at least one representative to attend the meetings each school year. In the event of a school representative vacancy, the parent organization can select an individual to fill the rest of the year. 

Participation in the Sylvania Schools Parent Organization is open to anyone in the Sylvania community. All interested parties, especially parents of children in our schools, are invited to attend the meetings and have voting privileges. The district office administrators and principals serve as advisors to the group along with Board of Education liaisons appointed each year.

Meetings:  Monthly meetings are held on the first Friday of each month during the school year from 12:00 pm – 1:00pm in the Zimpfer Conference Room, 1st floor of the Bradley J. Rieger Administration Offices at 4747 N. Holland Sylvania Road.  Evening meetings are generally scheduled once a semester.  Here is the 2018-2019 Meeting Schedule:
