Honour a Teacher or LB Staff Member!

Has a teacher or other LB staff member made a difference in the life of your child? Please remember that you can honour them in one of two ways:

1) With a Leo Baeck Tribute Card - For a minimum donation of $18.00 per card, to a fund of your choice, we will send the card on your behalf. Just visit the dedicated page on the website.
If you wish to order multiple cards, please contact Linda Abramsohn in the Development Office at 905-709-3636 x222.

2) By dedicating a Siddur in honour of a teacher/staff member. With a $36.00 donation to the Siddur Fund, a Siddur will be dedicated in their honour and included in our set of "guest Siddurim" at the campus of your choice. Visit the Siddur Dedication page on the website or call Linda Abramsohn in the Development Office at 905-709-3636 x222.

Thank you in advance!


Interested in being a Class Parent next year?

Why should you become a Class Parent?

The Class Parents for each class are the primary contact between the school and the parents in that class. They are notified by the school of all volunteer opportunities including field trips and in-class events as well as school events and information. It is a great way to meet other families and get involved with the school and the LBPA.

Whether you work full time, part time or are simply a busy parent, the time commitment is manageable. This is an excellent way to stay connected to your child's class and school events.

For more information and to sign up, please download the form here or at the top of the page.
