Most importantly, we offer classroom assistance, serve as field trip chaperones and support the student council in their efforts to enhance the quality of education for each and every student at the Academy.

We are not able to provide these special events without the help of our volunteers. MAPO is open to all Montessori parents, friends and supporters.

If you are interested in joining MAPO or just volunteering at certain events, please call MAPO President Jennifer Webster at 240-215-5486, or email MAPO@montacad.org. We would love to have you!
