Parents and Families
Brentwood School is more than a location where students learn; it is a community of families who all grow in character together.Family involvement is essential to our vibrant school experience. As a school, we see ourselves as partners with parents and guardians in educating young minds. Ours is a community of actively involved families, whether serving as admissions tour guides or volunteering in and out of the classroom.
Parents Association
The Parents Association (PA) offers activities and volunteer opportunities that enhance our sense of community at Brentwood School. Every parent and guardian of a Brentwood School student is automatically a member of the Parents Association. Together parents collaborate to strengthen their connection to one another and to the school. Our shared purpose is to build personal connections, serve as a community ambassadors, contribute valuable resources, and support and sustain Brentwood School, present and future.

Fundraising
Parents Association Fundraising
The Parents Association sponsors four primary fundraising initiatives: EagleBook, EagleWear, the annual Auction, and the annual Benefit. Funds raised through these efforts support the PA’s programs and events throughout the year while also enabling the PA to invest in meaningful projects and enhancements that benefit the Brentwood community and campus.
EagleBook
The annual EagleBook kicks off early in the school year, offering families the opportunity to create and strengthen bonds between parents, guardians, and other members of the Brentwood School community. Events are hosted and underwritten by other Brentwood School families with an eye toward community engagement and fun.
EagleWear
Designed by members of the PA, EagleWear consists of apparel and accessories for both adults and children. EagleWear is sold online and at school events throughout the year so that families have many opportunities to showcase their school pride.
Benefit & Auction
The annual PA Benefit, a fabulous, adult-only dinner and auction, is a favorite community building event. Families participate by underwriting the Benefit, donating auction items, and purchasing tickets to enjoy the entertainment and activities planned each year by the Benefit committee of the PA.
Parent Education
To support our parent and guardian community, the PA offers a range of parent education programs focused on timely, relevant topics affecting our families. Most events take place on campus, and we occasionally collaborate with other local schools to co-host speakers.
These events are thoughtfully planned and funded by the PA, in partnership with Brentwood School administration. Dates can be found on the school calendar, and additional details will be shared through The Daily Envelope.
The School Speaker Alliance of Los Angeles (SSALA)
The Parents Association is proud to be a member of the School Speaker Alliance of Los Angeles, founded in 2017 by a group of 10 Los Angeles-area independent school parent leaders. This consortium works together to bring dynamic and intriguing speakers to our school families, both strengthening community ties and encouraging continuing inquiry.
