Make plans to join us on Thursday, January 29, 2026 from 6:00 to 9:00 PM at Carle Place High School.

For 2026, session topics are being developed based on a survey given to students asking what they wish their parents knew and want them to learn to better support their learning journey.

Stay tuned for the full agenda and registration details.

Parent University is a FREE, interactive event where parents and guardians learn valuable resources and strategies to support their child's learning journey. Parent University seeks to educate and empower families as partners, advocates, and lifelong supporters in their child's education.

During this three-hour, in-person event, you'll have the opportunity to attend sessions that were developed in partnership with Carle Place School District, Carle Place PTA & SEPTA, Carle Place Teachers Association, Carle Place Civic Association, and other community members. 

With parents directly involved with session development, there are sure to be relevant topics for parents with children of all ages and stages.

Plus, some sessions will be led by district teachers and/or administrators, so you’ll get an inside look into the district and gain strategies on how to utilize the full potential of the district’s resources.

You can tailor your evening and attend sessions that interest you and are relevant to the challenges your kids face on a daily basis.

• Ignite parental engagement and cultivate a stronger parent-to-school-community connection.
