Looking for help getting your student to/from school or after-school activities during the 2024/2025 school year? Parker Core Knowledge is pleased to partner with Schoolpool, a free program to make it easier to get to school and activities through carpooling. Even if you don't want a full time carpool, you can connect with other families that may have an occasional need. It's also a great way to meet nearby families who attend our school and get more connected to our school community.
