Family Association 1200px x 463px

A school is a place for students. But a school community is much bigger, richer, and more inclusive.

Bennett Day School's Family Association is in place to foster a spirit of inclusion, partnership, and cooperation among the entire school community. Through various committees, we help to further the visions and goals of the classroom teachers and administrators. The Family Association facilitates communication and parent education as well as encourages and coordinates volunteerism. Our parents volunteer their time to make our school and surrounding neighborhood a better place.
