Helping Playa Vista Elementary Soar….Together

WHO WE ARE

Friends of Playa Vista School (FPVS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation founded and operated by the parents of Playa Vista Elementary students. We support Playa Vista Elementary School administrators, teachers, staff, students, and families so that every child in every classroom receives the enrichment and educational support they deserve. We build community through events and fundraisers, and every dollar goes to supporting our school! All donations to FPVS are tax-deductible.

OUR MISSION

To support and strengthen the Playa Vista Elementary School community through inclusive fundraising efforts that benefit all students, families, teachers, staff, and administrators. We are dedicated to enhancing the educational experience by funding programs, events, and resources that LAUSD doesn’t….helping our school soar to new heights.

Interested in Volunteering at PVES?

We appreciate and value our parent volunteers here at PVES. Here are the steps required for all PVES volunteers:

  • Complete a LAUSD volunteer application at the start of each school year. The application can be found HERE.
  • Volunteers must have a valid T.B. clearance certificate from their doctor. This must be renewed every four years.
  • Sign a Confidentiality Agreement at the start of each school year.
  • Attend a Volunteer Training meeting. This is required when you first begin to volunteer, and needs to be renewed the same year that your T.B. clearance is renewed. Volunteer Training dates and times can be found on our school calendar.
