EDUCATING THE WHOLE CHILD
IN A NURTURING, CREATIVE COMMUNITY
PCWS PARENT ASSOCIATION
The Parent Association (PA) is the community-building organization for the school. The charter for the PA describes its purpose as a commitment to generate, welcome and honor the participation of PCWS families in the life of the school.
​
The PA supports the school's sense of community by holding social events for families and engages in school-appropriate fundraisers to support future PA activities. In addition, the Parent Association provides a forum for parents to communicate and discuss issues of interest, in turn acting as the voice of the parent community for the Board.
​
The PA meets bi-monthly to discuss upcoming events and other school-related topics. In addition, the PA hosts a variety of gatherings for the PCWS school community, below is a list of typical, annual gatherings.
