The Parents Association/Va'ad Horim is a volunteer membership organization of Gross Schechter Day School parents. Its leadership is comprised of a board of directors and committee chairs who are nominated and elected at the end of each school year. The entire Schechter community is encouraged to submit nominations for serious consideration. The primary goal of the Parents Association is to enhance and enrich the overall educational experiences of our children, parents and staff. We encourage you to join the Va'ad/PTO and show your support for the school and, most importantly, the students.
