Parents, Teachers, Faith Warriors

We recognize parental involvement as a key factor to our success. Quite simply, we cannot accomplish everything we do without your help. Throughout the year, the Parent-Teachers-Faith Warriors will sponsor and support events that directly benefit and enrich the students of Bayshore Christian School.

What is Parents, Teachers, Faith Warriors (PTFW)?

All parents and/or guardians of children attending Bayshore Christian School, as well as faculty and staff, are members of the PTFW and are encouraged to participate.

PTFW will sponsor and support events that directly benefit and enrich the students of Bayshore Christian School. Our success is dependent on your active involvement.

Active members of the PTFW consist of parents/guardians, teachers, and alumni who volunteer their time.

We are an independent organization, and we do not belong to any state or national affiliation.

We keep all funds that are raised by the PTFW for our school and are not required to contribute percentages to local, state, and/or national associations.

The PTFW works with the school to evaluate and prioritize the allocation of funds raised.

The Bayshore Christian School's PTFW Mission is:

• To develop avenues of hospitality and fellowship toward BCS faculty, the students, and parents/guardians
• To improve and enhance the quality of our school
• To be a positive public relations agency to our school community
