Parent School Council

Palm Beach Day Academy is a true family school. We consider our parents to be valued partners in each child’s education. Family involvement not only maintains the high standards of our school but also provides rewarding experiences for students and parents alike.

Parents are invited to show their support of PBDA through participation in our Parent School Council (PSC). Volunteerism is a longstanding tradition at Palm Beach Day Academy and each year, there are various opportunities for every parent to get involved.

A New Way to Volunteer this 2026-27 School Year

For our returning parents, one important change this year is how we’ll be asking for volunteers. Rather than sending a separate interest form at the beginning of the year, volunteer opportunities will be included in the monthly Lower School and Upper School Bulldog Bulletins as well as the Weekly Update emails, with links directly to the SignUpGenius for each event. Please keep an eye out for those—and please only sign up when you’re fairly certain you can make it.
