​Ocean Shore School​ PTO



​
Ocean Shore is a dynamic program built over time from a small alternative program to a school of 450 students in grades Kindergarten through eighth. Parent participation as well as experiential learning are cornerstones of this program.

​Ocean Shore School prepares students for all public and private high schools through district-approved curriculum, project-based work, hands-on activities, technology use, and field trip experiences. Students from Ocean Shore leave prepared with strong academic and communication skills, individual confidence, and as cooperative learners with a passion for learning.

Music - Thanks to PEF and PTO

"I would teach children music, physics and philosophy; but most importantly music, for the patterns in music and all the arts are the keys to learning."  Plato

Thanks to PTO funding, Cristin Fong is able to teach music to our K-2 students! Check out her welcome back video here. Almost there!

Thanks to PEF funding, Mark Unbehagen is able teach music to our 3-5 students (and those across the entire district)! Check out his welcome back video here.
