In the beginning, The Parkside School consisted of one family, one student and two teacher directors. We have since grown into a large, dynamic and diverse community.

Our student body is now made up of roughly 85 children each school year and 60 children during the summer program. Our staff is now 48 teachers, specialists and administrators. The Parkside parent body has become a rich and active network of families from all around the area. Our alumni maintain close and lively connections to the school and to one another. Add to this our many community partnerships and the constant presence of student teachers and interns, expert consultants, speakers, workshop presenters and classroom guests, and it's easy to see why we take so much pride in our school community.
