School Life
Beyond the Classroom
At Parker, we recognize there is more to educating our students than academics.
What truly enriches the Parker experience are opportunities students have to engage with their peers outside the classroom and with the surrounding community. Through formal and informal cross-grade interaction, after-school clubs and programs and school-wide traditions and celebrations, Parker students explore their interests and talents and forge bonds with each other they will carry with them throughout their lives.
