PARENT Council
Be part of what makes Fontbonne feel like home.
Support advancement events, connect with other families, and champion Fontbonne, The Early College of Boston—especially our students.
The Parent Council brings our school events to life through volunteering, decorating, fundraising, and community engagement. Whether you have a little time or a lot, your involvement truly makes a difference. All current parents/guardians and alumnae families are automatically part of this vibrant community.
Meetings are held throughout the year, and new volunteers are always welcome.
