The Burbank Parent Education Program is a wonderful resource for parents and children alike.  Classes provide an excellent opportunity for parents to meet other local parents and learn about age-specific child development topics.  In addition to our classes, the Burbank Parent Education Program also offers a number of workshops and events throughout the year.

Special Events

In a typical year, the Burbank Parent Education Program hosts holiday events, school and class photos, field trips, Scholastic book orders, charity drives and many more enriching and engaging activities. The program also hosts several fundraising events to support the program and stock the school rooms and play yards with equipment, toys, supplies and provide scholarships to the program. Our two biggest events are the annual Boo Bash Halloween Carnival (a community event for kids of all ages) and our annual Spring Gala.
