Join the Conversation at a Parent Network Meeting
Parent Network Meetings
Parent Networks are gatherings for parents and guardians from each grade level to get acquainted and share parenting ideas that revolve around day-to-day issues. Informal meetings are scheduled once each month with the purpose of widening circles of community, support and responsibility. Parent Networks provide an opportunity for parents to share ideas, concerns and strategies around issues such as friendships, parent-child communication, emerging independence, discipline and social life (dating, parties, etc.).
