Lions Parent Association

The Lions Parent Association (LPA) supports the mission of the school by building community through providing opportunities to connect and cultivate relationships, promoting volunteerism, and fostering school spirit.

Parents, please join us for the LPA Kickoff on Friday, September 6, at 8 a.m. in the DeVos Chapel. You will have the opportunity to hear about the various opportunities to serve and meet the leadership of each team of the LPA.

The Lions Parent Association serves as the primary means of parental involvement and works to strengthen the home and school link. The LPA is organized to provide flexibility and sharing of responsibilities in order to maximize parental involvement as a key element of school culture. They offer a wide range of volunteer opportunities that vary with regard to interest, skill, and time.

As a WA parent, you are already a member of the Lions Parent Association. We challenge every family to get involved in some capacity! Click here to contact the LPA.
