Priority Registration will only be given to students whose parents take on Board roles including Grade Level Patrons.
The Hong Kong Cotillion is a fully parent run, volunteer organization. We highly encourage you to participate in whatever capacity best suits you and your family.
Parent Involvement Opportunities
As a program that is organized and operated by parent volunteers, we offer a variety of ways in which parents can be involved. This season, we will have opportunities as Patrons, Rotating Chaperones or Committee Members.
Patrons are parents who agree to manage the sessions. They will attend at least 9 of the 13 sessions and be responsible for managing all the details related to the the students
as well as the chaperones. At least two parents/couples will be required for each grade.
Rotating Chaperones are parents who agree to assist the Patrons throughout the session. Their role will be twofold. The first part is to help keep the students focused and engaged during the dance lesson. The second part is to help the students with the dining and etiquette lesson during dinner.
Committee Members are parents who agree to help with one of the various committees that make the Cotillion run. There are numerous positions available, some will require parents at the events and others that will require behind the scenes help.
Visitors and Parent Nights
Parents are cordially invited to attend Parent Night, a special event that will be held in the second half of the season. Visitors and Parents who wish to attend on other evenings should contact us at hongkongcotillion@gmail.com.
At Etiquette Night, CNY Banquet and The Founders Formal, parents are welcome and encouraged to join the students in the waiting areas and take photos prior to these events.
