About the Montclare Parents Association
Our Mission:
The Montclare Parents Association's purpose is to foster a positive sense of community among Montclare Children's School students, families, and staff, and to support diversity as an integral part of school life. We believe that a vibrant, diverse community represents a vital learning opportunity for children, and reflects important values of caring and responsibility toward others.
What We Do:
Working closely with Montclare's director and team, our families volunteer their time, talents and resources, and collectively donate thousands of hours to plan community-building events as well as fundraising activities. Funds raised through this extraordinary effort support need-based scholarships for children who otherwise would not have the opportunity to attend Montclare Children's School.
How to Get Involved:
The School Picnic, Game Night, Holiday Fair, and Spring Benefit are just a few of the many fun and exciting events planned to make this a fun and successful year! A terrific way to become more involved is to volunteer your time and talents to one or more of the various committees throughout the year. Aside from becoming more engaged in your child's school, it is a wonderful way to get to know other Montclare families. If you wish to volunteer, please contact the individuals listed there or email us at [email protected].
The Montclare Association, Inc. (Tax ID 92-0188500) is a corporation organized and operated exclusively for charitable purposes within the meaning of section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code.
