Each year The Parents League holds a fair for Boarding schools and a fair for Middle and Upper day schools in September. A fair for independent Kindergarten is held in April. The fairs provide an opportunity for families to learn about independent schools. Representatives from Parents League member schools will be available to speak informally with parents and provide information about the schools.
Immediately following each Fair, families are invited to attend a panel discussion with panelists from our member schools. These events are open to the public. No registration is necessary for parents.
