Seabury Hall Parent Organization

Seabury Hall thrives thanks to the incredible support of our parent community, who contribute their time, talent, and resources. Whether volunteering at school events, attending performances and athletic competitions, or engaging in fundraising efforts, parents—both of current students and alumni—are a vital part of the Seabury Hall community.

Our parent support group, the Seabury Hall Parent Organization (SHPO), includes every parent as a member. SHPO’s mission is to help the school achieve its goals while fostering parent involvement through a variety of volunteer opportunities. Parents can take on roles such as athletic team parents, assist in building sets and sewing costumes for the performing arts, or participate in career and community service days.

SHPO also organizes key fundraising events, including the Craft Fair, which relies on over 700 parent volunteers. To further support our community, SHPO offers parenting workshops and seminars, such as "Parent Education Nights," and maintains regular communication with the Head of School. Together, we create a vibrant and engaged Seabury Hall community.
