Parents Association
Every parent and guardian at Greensboro Day School is automatically a member of the Parents Association. The PA works with the GDS administration to support our teachers, staff, and students; build community; and provide support for school programs. Each year, the PA plans a number of events that celebrate and enrich our entire GDS Bengal Community.
