Welcome FCS parents! Below, you'll find important documents, links, news, and updates for current parents.
The Home & School Association (HSA)
Welcome!
The Home & School Association is a vibrant and vital part of the Friends’ Central School community. The HSA links home and school by engaging our diverse and accomplished parent/guardian community in support of HSA events.
Parents and guardians become a part of the HSA upon enrollment and may serve in a variety of ways; as a Co-Clerk, Division Co-Chair or Parent Representative of the Executive Committee, or as a volunteer for a Service, grade specific or all-school event. There should be an opportunity to fit every schedule!
Events sponsored or supported by the Home & School Association include; Parent Gatherings, the Middle and Upper School Book Fairs, the Lower School Pumpkin Fair, Principal Coffees, Curriculum Nights, MLK Day of Service, Movie Nights, Spirit Night and Faculty Appreciation celebrations...just to name a few.
As Co-clerks of the Home & School Association, we believe that Friends’ Central parents and guardians are essential for the development and success of our students. With the support of family and Friends’ our children and our community are made stronger. We know your time is valuable and we value any time you have to give!
Thank you,
Wendy Frame ‘17, ‘20 and Christine Giordano '23
Co-Clerks of the Home & School Association

HSA Thanks You!Thank you to all the wonderful parent volunteers who made the 2018-2019 school year so successful. Special thanks to Parent Reps who kept us all connected to the school and the classroom.
And finally thank you the Home and School Association Executive Committee members who are rotating off this year: Chris Coburn, Kinshasa Rogers, Ami Lonner, Jen Stern and Robin Riess. Their leadership has guided us for the past two years and supported all the divisional and school-wide events.
Below is a picture of some of our "Super Volunteers" who have their youngest child graduating.
