Welcome Parents!

The Delbarton Mothers' Guild

The Delbarton Mothers' Guild (DMG) supports the educational, cultural, social, spiritual, and financial needs of Delbarton School. The DMG assists with Homecoming, partners with Campus Ministry for the Thanksgiving Food and Christmas Toy drives, decorates the campus for Christmas, co-hosts school socials with Fathers & Friends, and kicks off the school year with class coffees.

The DMG also conducts fundraisers to support Delbarton's scholarship program, helping the school provide many deserving young men with educational opportunities.

At the heart of the Delbarton Mothers' Guild is a strong commitment to community-building programs such as our Advent and Lenten retreats, our monthly book club, weekly spiritual gatherings like Body and Soul (Rosary and a walk through Jockey Hollow), and Walking with Purpose Bible study and numerous social events. The DMG provides spiritual support and other assistance to members of the Delbarton community during difficult times.

All Delbarton moms are automatically members of the DMG. We welcome and encourage you to become involved. The DMG affords all a wonderful opportunity for moms to meet and take an active role in their son's formation of mind, body, and spirit. 

Delbarton parent council on diversity and inclusion

The Parent Council on Diversity and Inclusion is comprised of an executive board of current and past Delbarton parents that help our school to fulfill its mission in fostering a community of equity and belonging. Council members have a line of communication with the Administrative Team at Delbarton School, they provide an informative voice that is helpful in administrative programming and in building bridges between the school and its broader community of families.  Their primary focus is in community-building among our parents and families with an emphasis on belonging, as well as amplifying the diversity of adult voices in our community.

Delbarton Parents of Graduates (DPGA)

The Delbarton Parents of Graduates Association (DPGA) exists to help parents of Delbarton alumni stay in touch with their Delbarton friends and with Delbarton School and St. Mary’s Abbey.

The DPGA's events preserve and enhance relationships among Delbarton parents of alumni, and promotes the advancement of Delbarton School. If you are a parent of a Delbarton alumnus, please join us!

We believe . . . that here, we ALWAYS belong.

There is no membership fee to join the DPGA.  It is our way to thank you for the many years you have continued to support Delbarton School. We encourage you to  fill out our Membership Form so that we can stay in touch and inform you of our upcoming events throughout the school year.

All funds raised by individual athletic team booster programs will now be exclusively directed through The Delbarton Fund.  Through this partnership, we will be able to effectively strategize annual fundraising efforts as well as provide institutional support to our Parent Boosters, and better serve our generous donors by offering them the maximum possible tax deduction each year.

supporting delbarton

Support of the Delbarton Fund is essential to maintaining Delbarton’s excellence in
Benedictine Catholic education. As a crucial component of the Delbarton School
operating budget, the Delbarton Fund is distinct from gifts for capital projects or for St.
Mary’s Abbey. As Delbarton’s main source of annual operating support beyond tuition, this year the Delbarton Fund provides:

● 118 students receiving financial aid, aid totaling $3.28 million.
● New STEM Maker Space and classroom space throughout Trinity Hall, in addition to
competitive compensation and professional development for our faculty who provide
students with their daily Delbarton experiences.
● Athletics and activities programming, so that all students can participate without
regard to cost.

As you think about how you can support Delbarton throughout this academic year, please add the Delbarton Fund at the top of your list.  Your participation matters most! Click here to make a gift now. 

Thank you for supporting the students of Delbarton!
