For Families

Family engagement is foundational to the success of each early college student, and fortifies our schools communities. There are many ways to be involved: join your campus Parent Teacher Association, volunteer to work a fundraising event, support your student’s favorite club or sports team, join Bard Early College in local policy advocacy.
