Parents

Welcome from our PA President:

Karen Stamoulis, Parents' Association President

“St. Luke’s is more than just a school. It is a vibrant community dedicated to encouraging every student to achieve all they can academically, artistically and on the playing field. It is also a close-knit family of teachers who are passionate about supporting students as they take risks, explore new interests, make new friends and grow into unique and valued individuals. We feel so fortunate to have sent both of our children to school here, Kate ’18 and Will ’22. St. Luke’s is also an incredibly welcoming place for both students and their families. At St Luke’s, we are so lucky to have such an engaged and friendly parent population. As parents, you are already members of the PA, and we encourage you to take advantage of the many opportunities to become involved in the life of our school. I look forward to seeing you on the Hilltop!”

    RESCHEDULED: An Evening with Gareth Fancher

    "Building The Critical Skills Of Emotional Agility - Lessons From 40 Years On The Hilltop"
    Forese Family Fireplace Commons
    In recent years, research has shown a consistent link between well-being, emotional intelligence and optimal student achievement. Helping students improve their self-awareness and confidence, regulate their emotions and impulses, and increase their empathy pays off not just in improved behavior, but in measurable academic achievement. High emotional agility is directly related to improvements in attention, memory and learning, good decision-making, relationship quality, physical and mental health, creativity and performance. Learn about how we are approaching the teaching of these skills at St. Luke's through an informative and interactive presentation.
