 | Families new to Kent Place quickly become a part of the community through our welcoming events, orientations and family buddy program, which help new parents transition to KPS. Once families join the Kent Place community, they can stay informed, connected and involved through our MyKPS Portal system.
The Parents’ Association (PA) plays a vital role in the life of Kent Place School. The PA organizes special events such as Family Fun Day, Grandparents & Special Friends Day, Faculty & Staff Appreciation Luncheon and the annual fundraiser, Spring Fling. Parent education programs are held several times during the school year to provide information on topics pertaining to parenting.
All parents are members of the Parents’ Association and are welcome to attend monthly meetings.
