Admissions Events

The New Roads Parent Village is a collaborative initiative led by parents, guardians and caregivers to partner with the administration and faculty to support the mission of the school through volunteer opportunities while embodying the principles of inclusivity, equity, kindness and integrity. 
Each Committee in the PV aims to serve this mission through its specific focus of community building, fundraising, gratitude, community service, or communication of events. The goal of all PV activities is to serve the greater good of the students, faculty and staff through service.
