The Chatham Day School Parents Association is happy to welcome you back to the 2025/26 school year. We hope you’re enjoying a wonderful summer and we look forward to seeing you back on campus soon! We’re excited for another fantastic year of learning, community and growth! Here’s to a great start!
This year Lauren Walsh will be stepping up as Co-President of the Parents’ Association. We are also excited to welcome April Lodato and Alana Stalvey to the PA board. They will be co-chairing the Family Events and are very eager to get started! We are both excited and grateful for their help this year.
As PA members we aim to create a warm, welcoming environment for all families. Our goal is to foster an inclusive atmosphere filled with engaging activities for the whole family. We look forward to your participation in making this school year a fun and memorable one for all!
Join us for our first parent social event! We’re excited to kick off the school year with an Aperitivo Pasta Fun Moms’ Night Out, a hands-on pasta making class, featuring Tuscan appetizers, fresh pasta, dessert and wine. The event will be held at Farinolio in Summit this fall with details to follow. Please be on the lookout for a full list of events, including our Welcome Back Coffee on Friday, September 12th.
For any feedback or questions you may have, we can always be reached at pa@chathamdayschool.org
