The Whitby School Parents Association is an organization whose purpose is to work with the Administration and the Board of Trustees to support the school's mission, programs and activities by encouraging and facilitating the exchange of ideas and information and promoting goodwill. All parents of currently enrolled Whitby School students constitute the membership of the Whitby Parents Association.
Parents remain the most important and influential people in their children's lives. The PA provides wonderful opportunities to stay involved with your son or daughter's educational experience. You will not only support your child's success while at Whitby, but also share in this extraordinary journey. Through the PA, parents can become more effective partners in their child's education, plan and implement community-building activities and create a supportive network for themselves. You may find an opportunity for personal growth and develop new friendships.
Every child at Whitby benefits directly from the work of the PA and there are so many ways for parents to get involved and make a difference. Whitby has been very fortunate to have an outstanding parent community that helps with a wide range of projects at the school. Parents are offered the opportunity to volunteer their time in a variety of ways and are a critical part of the success and strength of the PA. The PA invites all parents to join in its endeavors to make our children's experience at Whitby as rewarding and enriching as possible. The contribution of your time -- no matter how large or small -- is greatly appreciated. Volunteer, participate and share your ideas!
PA General Meetings are held monthly from September through May in the Performing Arts Center. Meetings generally start at 9:00 am, refreshments are served beforehand to give parents the opportunity to meet and greet. A dial-in capability is available for parents who are unable to attend the meeting in-person. Minutes of the PA General Meeting are then distributed to parents.
