Thank you for supporting the students and teachers at PBMS and MBHS! Proceeds go toward many programs, including IB, tutoring, athletics, PBMS zero period, and more.

Fundraising Goals

Our goal is to supplement funding for existing programs, new
programs, educational supplies, equipment, and facility needs at PBMS
and MBHS to provide a quality education for all students at these
schools.

The FOPBSS board of directors is elected annually and consists of the
principals, parents, and teacher representatives from both schools.
Since our inception in 2003, we have contributed countless dollars to
MBHS and PBMS programs, resources, and improvements; advocated for
better resources and campus facilities for our students and teachers;
and have created a strong community of Pacific Beach locals and families
that CHOICE into our schools from throughout the county.
