Partnering With Parents

Welcome to our partnering with parents page! Inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, we see families as essential partners in learning. Here, you’ll find lists of materials we’re collecting, projects that need helping hands, and opportunities to share your unique skills and hobbies with our students. Together, we create a rich, creative environment where children and community grow side by side. Please complete the form below if you wish to contribute to a specific project, or be added to our resource list for something you are passionate about.
