Be Part of SPSO

The StudentParent•Staff Organization (SPSO) is the East Mountain High School parent organization.  The mission of the SPSO is to connect families to the EMHS community and to provide parent education that will enable you to better support your child’s education!

The SPSO holds monthly meetings on special educational topics including how to support students through high school and get ready for college. SPSO also plans and holds several fundraising and community events throughout the school year, including the Welcome Back Bash, Light the Night, the Ritzy Rummage Sale, the East Mountain Idol Talent Show and the Year-End Discovery BBQ. We want YOU to get involved with this great organization!
