Parent Association

The Parent Association (PA) of MdTL serves to build community through education and social events and provides a resource for parents to get involved and stay connected. We are fortunate to have a very active and diverse parent body that understands the importance of supporting the school, sharing their unique talents and connecting with other families.

The PA oversees several events throughout the year which give the families of MdTL an opportunity to come together as a community. Additionally, the PA helps facilitate and support new families transitioning to MdTL and serves as a resource providing information on how to become involved in supporting the distinct and rich environment at the school.

We strive to give our parent body ample opportunity to develop strong personal relationships that are integral to the success of the school.

The Parent Association welcomes you and invites you to get involved! Read more about our annual events and volunteer opportunities or tell us how you are interested in getting involved!

A sampling of events throughout the school year:

Halloween Festival 

This popular event is for Primary and Pre-Primary students and run by the Elementary students with support from the Parent Association. It takes place at the school and involves festival games, face painting, a bake sale, and books for prizes! MdTL parents volunteer and help with bake sale, books, decorations, games, and more!

Family Camping Trip

Spend time outdoors with other MdTL families on this large group camping trip! This weekend event for the whole family allows students and parents to come together in nature, with camping veterans and novices alike.

Pajama Pancake Breakfast

Pajamas + Pancake Breakfast = Fun! This gathering is fun for kids and parents alike and has become a bright spot in the middle of winter for our families. Many volunteers organize and prepare a fabulous breakfast feast for our entire MdTL community. In 2010, we went organic and local with most of our food items and transitioned to compostable plates, cups, and utensils, drastically reducing our waste.

In the past we've had a reptile expert who thoroughly engaged and educated the entire crowd with a menagerie of creepies, crawlies and critters! We welcome family, friends, extended family, teachers and staff to this warm and wonderful gathering.

Staff Appreciation Lunch

The Staff Appreciation Luncheon is a lovely way to thank the phenomenal teachers and staff at MdTL. A chairperson and a group of parent volunteers work together to make and serve a beautiful and delicious lunch for our well-deserving teachers and staff. This is a great way to share a favorite dish or just pitch in an hour or two to let them know how much we truly appreciate all they do for our children.

End of Year Pizza in the Park

An energetic pizza party in the park allows families to celebrate the end of the school year.
