Parent Groups
At East Avenue, one of our goals is to create a community based environment where we encourage the involvement and engagement of our parents, community members, staff and students.
Here you will find different parent involvement groups and opportunities we have here at East Avenue.

Site Based Decision Making (SBDM)
Site Based Decision Making (SBDM) was introduced to Hayward USD in 1996 as a strategy for ensuring that staff, parents, and students at individual school sites had a vehicle for engaging in the decision-making that most affected their own sites. Over the years, HUSD board and district leadership have affirmed the importance of SBDM as a means of exchanging ideas, data, and other information necessary to improving educational opportunities for HUSD students.
