Parent Education

Fosters Lifelong Learning

We strive to enrich the educational and learning experience for our families on timely and relevant parenting topics through workshops, book discussions, and nationally-acclaimed speaker events. In addition, the Parents' Association sponsors on-going grade-level and divisional education meetings to help parents with various developmental stages and challenges that arise when parenting, and school divisions and departments also host relevant topic discussions.

Educational Resources

These resources seek to provide parents with helpful and relevant information from distinguished and informed sources.
