Cougar Community
The mission of the Parents' Association (PA) is to promote and foster the well-being and continued advancement of Collegiate. We are composed of all parents and guardians of Collegiate students, faculty, administration, and members of the Board of Trustees dedicated to our children's future at Collegiate.

Our primary purpose is to support the School and bring families together to build and strengthen the community. We provide opportunities for families to meet, volunteer, and get involved while generating enthusiasm and excitement for all aspects of Collegiate. We organize events such as Cougar Color Run, Bingo Night, Cougar Holiday Express, and Village Green Fair. Any funds raised are directed toward the continued advancement of our School. All parents are welcomed, needed, and encouraged to volunteer and be advocates for Collegiate's excellence.

How can I get involved?
Sign up to volunteer! The Parents' Association is a dynamic organization thanks to the participation of many parent volunteers. All parents are welcomed, needed, and encouraged to volunteer and be advocates for Collegiate's excellence. Learn more on the Collegiate PA website.

It is an honor to serve as this year’s Parents’ Association President.  Throughout my time at Collegiate, volunteering has helped me make personal connections and feel part of this great community. I have gotten to know so many parents, teachers, administrators, and staff and it has furthered my gratitude and understanding of all the wonderful things that happen here. 

As parents at the school, you are automatically a part of the Parents’ Association. The PA exists to support the School in an effort to strengthen our community and positively enhance the experience of all who are a part of it. There truly is the right volunteer opportunity for everyone, and every bit of time and effort makes a positive difference for Collegiate. I hope you will join me in supporting the Parents’ Association this year. 

Our volunteer opportunities include a wide range of on-campus experiences across all school divisions as well as options to participate in fundraising efforts with our special events and Village Green Fair. There are also many ways for those who would prefer to help from home and may have less time available in-person to volunteer. I welcome any parent to reach out to me directly to discuss the many ways to become involved!
