Parent Teacher Organization (PTO)
Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year!
The MCS PTO enriches the MCS community by cultivating community between parents, students, and faculty. We do this by:
- Hosting family-centered events and community-building activities
- Assisting with the book fairs
- Helping with fundraising activities that support school programs
- Leading teacher appreciation efforts and raising funds for teacher grants that support student learning
- Coordinating Room Parents to support clear communication and coordinate class parties
The PTO meets in the library on the first Tuesday of every month after drop-off. Our first meeting will be Tuesday, September 2nd. We hope to see you there!
