MTW Parent Committees
MTW has a highly active and successful Parent Teacher Association that helps to facilitate many of the programs in the school. The PTA raises money, supports and helps to organize PTA functions, school events and classroom curriculum projects.
All parents and guardians are automatically members of the PTA. Over time, you will discover the myriad ways in which you can become integral partners in the MTW community.
Below is a list of our active committees at MTW. We encourage you to observe and participate in a committee. Not only will you get a better feel for the school, but you will nurture relationships with other MTW families. There are several levels of involvement for every committee - from very heavy involvement as a chair person to a lighter commitment taking on 1 or 2 simple committee tasks with flexible hour requirements.
There are numerous permanent standing commitees and several ad hoc committees that can change from year to year.
