Parents Association 2009-2010 preparing for Homecoming

The Parents Association is an important cog in the wheel of activity at Oak Hall School. All parents, grandparents, and other caregivers of current Oak Hall students are encouraged to take part in the activities of the Parents’ Association.

The purpose of the Parents Association is to organize, coordinate and promote the activities and committees of its membership in support of Oak Hall School. In fulfilling this purpose, we strive to build a community of parents who feel connected to the school and our children’s lives. The Association’s success depends upon the active involvement of all parents.

Because of the many demands on all our time in today’s busy world, it is more important than ever to stay involved with our children and their school. The Parents Association gives parents an avenue in which to stay involved in our children’s lives and at the same time provide an invaluable service to the Oak Hall Community.
