Glenside Parents at Work in Schools (PAWS) is an organization whose purposes are to promote a mutual understanding between home and school and to seek legislative and community action to foster superior education. We invite teachers, staff, administrators, and parents and guardians of students at Glenside Elementary School to join us as we advocate for our students’ interests and provide enrichment to the services and supports provided by the Cheltenham School District. Some of PAWS’ annual activities include:

PTO-Sponsored Assemblies

Bear Store

Kindergarten Meet ‘N Greet Playdates and First-Day Kindergarten Coffee (for parents)

Diversity Festival

Fair of the Bear Spring Carnival

Scholastic Book Fair, Book Swaps

Fall and Winter Family Fun Nights

MLK Day of Service

Clubs

PAWS also provides supplemental funding for Glenside Elementary, including gifts of equipment and resources, supplemental funding for events such as the Author’s Visit, and start-up grants for teachers to enable them to purchase items for their classrooms. Get Involved

Glenside PAWS E-mail Signup: Our (mostly) weekly blast contains information about upcoming PAWS events both during and outside of school hours. Additionally, blasts often have online sign-ups that allow you to volunteer (or organize) PAWS events.
