The da Vinci School has a very involved Parent Organization
offering a wide array of opportunities for parent
involvement. This involvement can be as much or as
little as the parent chooses based on their individual
time and interests. Throughout the school year, the
Parent Organization coordinates social, educational
and fundraising events that help build a sense of
community at The da Vinci School. Particular attention
is paid to new families in the school, so they feel
comfortably oriented to the school and experience
a sense of belonging.
The da Vinci School is made
up of loving, talented and devoted parents! It is
not unusual for long-term friendships to develop out
of contacts made from involvement at The da Vinci
School. We want The da Vinci School to be a supportive
learning environment for EVERYONE involved.
Although parents are generally not engaged in activities
at the school when the children are present (as little
children tend to find this distracting), parents attend
class parties, special events, class field trips and
sometimes become a special guest for a portion of
a day. There are a lot of opportunities for parents to be involved with the
school!
Since The da Vinci School is a non-profit organization,
the fundraising activities of the Parent Organization
play a very important role in the operation of the
school. The main fundraising event takes place in
the spring and includes an elaborate evening social.
The highlight of the evening is a live auction of
projects created by the children in each of the classes.
