Parents Association

Dear Parents,

I hope you are having an exciting and fun-filled summer with your families. This summer has been an opportunity not only for me to learn more about my role and responsibilities as the new Parents Association President, but to plan for the future.

I look forward to seeing you all at the first Parents Association meeting on Monday, September 8th at 7:00 pm in Bahnik Hall. I encourage all of you to attend since your presence and participation is integral to keeping these lines of communication open in order to foster new ideas and to boost greater volunteer involvement among all parents. We will introduce the new Parents Association officers, Class Parents and Event Chairs. In addition, we will review important announcements on Founder’s Day, the new Emergency Phone System and Food Service, the Annual Fund, and so much more.

On behalf of the Parents Association leadership, I would like to thank you for continuing your commitment to making Portledge an even more dynamic and vibrant community for our students, parents, faculty, and administration this coming year. Happy Summer!

Best Regards,

Dana Pagliara
