The Paddington Parent Association was founded in 2013. A dedicated group of parents created the following mission statement:

“The Paddington Parent Association is here to build a community
partnership between families and faculty to support the Paddington experience.”
​
Every Paddington parent is a member of this group and is welcome to attend the monthly meetings on the second Monday of the month. Meeting reminders and other PPA updates will be provided in Paddington’s ALL ABOARD! weekly email update.

The PPA sponsors several fundraising efforts to support the school. CLICK HERE to learn more about how you can contribute simply by shopping where you usually shop!
