PTSA stands for Parent Teacher Student Association. At The Academy of Alameda, our PTSA brings together parents and caregivers, students, teachers, staff, and community supporters to strengthen every student’s learning, well-being, and sense of belonging. Membership is open to the AoA community; joining gives each member a voice and a vote, and volunteering is always optional.
