Families in Partnership Association (FiPA)
Since our founding in 1968 by a group of dedicated parents, families have played a central role in our community.
FiPA helps families connect, celebrate our educators, welcome new families to the School, and give back to the broader community. All parents and guardians of currently enrolled students are automatically members and are encouraged to get involved. Families can connect through FiPA’s five committees, which focus on a variety of initiatives and activities.
