CDS Parent Community Alliance (PCA): Join The Story Of Your Child’s Success
At the heart of every thriving school is a community of engaged parents who come together to make a difference. The CDS Parent Community Alliance (PCA) is where parents like you become heroes in the story of your child’s education. Together, we create opportunities, foster connections, and build a stronger, more vibrant school experience for everyone.
Who We Are
The PCA is a community of dedicated parents and caregivers united by a common goal: to support Collage Day School, its educators, and, most importantly, our children. We’re your partners, your cheerleaders, and your collaborators in shaping the kind of school environment where children can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
What We Do
We organize engaging events, support classroom initiatives, and provide resources to enhance learning opportunities. From planning school-wide celebrations to assisting with teacher appreciation efforts, every PCA project is designed to enrich the lives of our students, families, and staff.
Why Your Support Matters
Tuition at Collage Day School ensures that the essentials are covered—like outstanding educators, curriculum materials, and operational needs, but it’s donations from parents like you that allow us to go beyond the basics.
Your Contributions Help Fund:
Exciting School Events that bring joy and foster community among students and families.
Teacher Appreciation Initiatives to honor and support our hardworking educators.
Enrichment Opportunities like campus enhancements, special programs and projects, and supplementing teacher development.
These contributions are the “extras” that transform a great school into an extraordinary one, and they are only possible because of the generosity of our parents and sponsors.
