Parents

The mission of the Calvert School Parents’ Association is to support the administration, faculty, and Calvert School family for the benefit of all and to enhance the campus and community life for every student. The CSPA has worked to enhance communication between the school and the parents, to provide volunteer opportunities, and to oversee efforts which promote interaction and school spirit. The primary role of the CSPA is to promote a sense of community among our parents. Together, in tough times, this community becomes a safety net for us all.
