Who is the FSO?

We are ALL the FSO! We’re a strong and active group of parents, guardians, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, siblings, family friends, administration, and staff who strive to provide a wide variety of community-building and service activities to improve the overall experience at MCS.

What does the FSO do?

The FSO plays a key role in nurturing a strong and connected MCS community. We coordinate community-building events, collect funds for teacher thank-you gifts, and serve as ambassadors for MCS’s mission, values, and brand. We also help support and promote the school’s larger fundraising efforts. Through these efforts, we help create a warm, inclusive environment where families feel engaged and connected to the life of the school.

How can you be involved?

1) Come to one of our meetings, listed on the school calendar.

2) Volunteer to help at events like the spring fundraising event, bake sales, the book sale, service projects, etc.

3) Bring us an idea for an event, project, etc.

Mabel's Labels

As you start to shop for school supplies and prepare your child’s belongings for the school year, please consider using Mabel’s Labels. When you search for Montessori Community School on their website and purchase from there, a portion of every sale comes straight back to MCS. These durable, waterproof, and laundry-safe labels are perfect for keeping track of your child’s gear—from pencil boxes to water bottles to jackets and lunchboxes. It’s an easy way to stay organized and support our community!
