WHAT’S THE AMPA?
The AMPA is the association of
mothers and fathers of students with an essential function: to bring families
to school. It must be a way of channeling proposals, suggestions, complaints
and any type of contributions by parents in order to improve the relationship between the educational community.
The AMPA has two basic
pillars: membership fee (4 euros/month) and parents volunteers who form the
committees and the Board and that make possible the development of the
activities of the association.
