Getting Involved

For many families, it is our truly special sense of community that was a deciding factor as they considered joining our school. This community spirit is evident throughout all our activities!

There are many ways for parents to get involved - some parents take advantage of opportunities to volunteer inside the classroom, while others move beyond the classroom due to their respective schedules and strengths.

Green Committee

The Green Committee takes a leadership role in our community for creating an environment of health and sustainability throughout the MdTL campus. The committee consists of an energized and forward thinking group of parents and staff working together to achieve such an environment. This school-wide commitment to green principles and practices culminated in 2009 with recognition as a Green Certified Business in Marin County.

The Green Committee sponsors several events each year and continues to share green principles and practices with the community. As part of continued recertification every three years as a Green Business, the Green Committee continues to advance and improve the green practices at the school. The Committee meets on the second Wednesday of each month.
