Stuart Parent Association
About
Organized in 1971, the Stuart Parent Association (SPA) serves to foster parent/guardian interest in the school and involve them in enhancing the quality of their students’ lives through enrichment activities designed to support both student and parent or guardian. Every Stuart parent or guardian is automatically a member of SPA.
The organization also functions as a communications conduit between faculty/staff, students and parents/guardians. The work of SPA is led by the Executive Board, consisting of SPA's elected officers and the Head of School. The Executive Board, which meets monthly, coordinates events and supports the school in many areas.

SPA, in coordination with Stuart faculty, is hosting a Cor Cordis summer book club for parents and guardians! Our hope is that parents will join us in reading books that relates to the themes of Cor Cordis, including Health, DEIB, Faith, Athletics, and SEL. For our first selection, please join us in reading Jonathan Haidt's "The Anxious Generation" over the summer and then will convene in September to discuss the book. This will be part of an All-Division initiative in the fall. Please let us know you would like to join us by filling out this form.
Please reach out to Jaci Trzaska with any questions.

Volunteer Opportunities
The Book Bag School Store

The Book Bag, Stuart's school store has some fun volunteer opportunities for anyone who can devote an hour and a half each week or every other week working in the store from 11:45-1:15. Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays still have open shifts. Tasks include ringing up students and some light restocking. The best part about this volunteer opportunity is interacting with the students. It's a great way to get to know many of the girls and even faculty and staff who often stop by. If you're interested please reach out to Diane McKee dnmckee19@gmail.com or 609-577-0526.
We have some great new items now available in the Bookbag: Yeti Drink Cups with Stuart Logo, Stuart Stadium Blankets, and baseball caps. Please stop by or shop online for all of your Stuart Spirit wear and accessory needs!
