Buckley parents make all the difference in building a strong community of families committed to supporting the success of our students. Through our Parents’ Association, volunteers help in every way to support classroom projects and activities, as well as spearheading special events for students and their families. We are happy to welcome Sara Vassos and Stephanie Lai in their first year as our Parents’ Association co-chairs for the 2024-2025 school year.

Parents' Association

The Parents’ Association works through the Development Office with Suzanne Bossé, the Development Associate for PA and Special Events, to foster parent involvement through a series of friendraising and fundraising events. Every Buckley parent is a member of this essential group and is encouraged to volunteer and attend regularly scheduled meetings throughout the school year.
