360 Parent Connections
The 360 Parent Connections Program is designed to foster a strong community by bringing parents together through educational workshops, social gatherings, and engaging curriculum evenings.

Parent Helpers
Parent helpers play a vital role in enhancing our local excursions within our 360 Beyond the Classroom program. Whether joining us at the location or riding along in our service minibus, your involvement adds an extra layer of support and fun for the children. The more parent helpers we have, the merrier the experience becomes!
Parents as Teachers
We absolutely love having family members join us in the classroom! It’s a wonderful way to enrich our learning environment and build connections. We warmly invite parents to come and share their culture, read a favorite book, or showcase a special skill or expertise. Your unique experiences and knowledge bring a fresh perspective to our classroom and inspire our children in meaningful ways.
