Parents’ Association

All Falmouth Academy parents automatically become members of the Parents’ Association when they enroll their students.

The mission of the Parents’ Association is to support the programs and people of Falmouth Academy through school and social events, volunteer activities and fundraising. Parents regularly host potlucks, FA open houses, coffee hours and other social events. They help with Grandparents’ Day, the Science Fair, and Graduation. Parents also serve as admissions ambassadors in their respective towns (from Duxbury and Marion to Yarmouth and Martha’s Vineyard), discussing their Falmouth Academy experience with prospective students and families. Our Parents’ Association also helps produce extraordinary fundraisers, such as our auction and wine tasting events, FA merchandise sales, and phone-a-thons on behalf of the Annual Fund.

The Parents’ Association generally holds two meetings a year—one in the fall and one in winter—to discuss plans for the academic year. Watch the GAM, the online calendar or your email for notices of meetings and events.
