Just as Montessori education encourages children to take on responsibility for the care and organization of the community within the classrooms, so the Montessori Academy’s P.T.O. encourages parents to take on responsibility for the school community at large. To that end, the mission of the P.T.O. shall be to build community by supporting MAB administration and by enhancing the relationships between the different constituencies of the MAB community. |

The Parent-Teacher’s Organization will:
-
Recruit and staff volunteer activities throughout the school year. This includes fundraising, room parents, field trip organization, special events, the library committee, the technology committee, classroom preparation, and other miscellaneous tasks. At the beginning of the year, the P.T.O. will conduct a "volunteer fair" to help orient parents as to the needs of the school and what they can do to help.
-
Organize non-administration elements of Open Houses, Parent Orientations, and other events that welcome visitors into the school.
-
Recognize the efforts of teachers, staff, and volunteers for their contributions to the community.
-
When possible fund special educational programs for the school that will augment and not interfere with our children's Montessori education.
-
Work with and through the administration to foster positive publicity about the school with local news agencies and community groups.
-
Encourage parents' understanding of the Montessori Method by working with administration and staff to develop suitable programs and materials that will demonstrate the philosophies and applications of the Method in MAB classrooms.
-
Inform parents of the roles and responsibilities of school officials.
