BDS at a Glance
Development



Parents are vital members of the Belmont Day School community. There are many opportunities for parents to be involved inside and outside of the classrooms.
All parents are members of the Parents' Association. The P.A. supports the school by facilitating communication between parents and faculty and by organizing educational, social, and fundraising activities. Participating in P.A. activities is an excellent way to meet other parents, to learn more about BDS, and to have fun while contributing to your child's educational experience.

Some parents serve on the Board of Trustees, which sets school policy and monitors the general direction of the school. Others serve as ad-hoc members of board/faculty committees on diversity, education, development, finance, marketing, and buildings and grounds.
Parents give tours of the school at open houses, serve as host parents to new families, bake treats for school gatherings, accompany their children on field trips, and lend their varied skills and expertise to projects in their children's classes. It doesn't take long for parents to discover that Belmont Day School is a place that involves the whole family.
