American Montessori Parent Team
Would you like to become involved? Please email the parent team: pt@americanmontessoriacademy.com

What is the Parent Team?
Founded in 1992, we are a non-profit group of parents who have volunteered time and skills to promote our family experiences during the year.

All familes enrolled in American Montessori Academy are Parent Team Members.  The success of the Parent Team depends on parental involvement.  Participation in meetings, events, and fundraising activity is optional but, recommended.

General Meetings
Our general meetings are held at the school on the first Tuesday of each month, 5:30pm** FREE child care (and dinner for the children) is provided for parents during the meeting.
**Meeting day subject to change**
