This collection also includes a guide to all the CASE Library's sample collections that feature sections for independent schools samples. We encourage you to visit the Schools hub for additional resources and news from CASE.

This sample collection includes material on parent councils, such as brochures, applications and role expectations, as well as material on parent giving campaigns, parent newsletters, parent welcome and orientation guides and material specifically for parents of international students.
