Who We Are
The Parents’ Association seeks to enrich our children’s educational experience by working with the administration, faculty and Board of Trustees. This past school year the Parents’ Association was proud to raise $218,000, which was given back to the school. These funds were allocated in a variety of support:  enhancement to the Lower School and Pre School Playgrounds, Annual Fund, Financial Aid, Expansion of the Upper School Journalism Program, 2 Potato Bars for the US/MS/LS Cafeterias, as well as, the 4th installment of a $400,000 laptop initiative.
