Volunteering with our Maria Montessori Parent Teacher Council means a lot to me as it provides a meaningful way to contribute to our school community and make a positive impact on the lives of our staff, students and families. From back-to-school nights, Halloween dances, staff appreciation events, movie nights, fun fairs, PTC meetings, and fundraisers, all of these events and more have given me a sense of connection and purpose. They have allowed me to be an active part of my community, fostering relationships with fellow parents, teachers, and students. Each event has taught me the importance of teamwork, creativity, and dedication, as we all come together to create meaningful experiences and support our school. These activities have also deepened my appreciation for the hard work and effort that goes into making these events successful and have given me the chance to contribute in ways that help strengthen our school’s spirit and sense of unity. Volunteering for our PTC is not just about giving of my time, it’s also about learning, growing, and finding fulfillment in knowing that I’ve made a difference, no matter how small.
