Parents & Guardians

Families play a vital role in building and fostering a vibrant, inclusive, and supportive CSW community. Your time, talents, and energy all help support programs and events critical to the life of the school. 

There are a variety of ways for parents and guardians to get involved at CSW. From helping organize student events like dances or athletics tournaments, to serving as an admissions ambassador and helping to spread the word about CSW — we welcome you to participate in any way you can.
