WELCOME TO THE HOME OF THE PARKSIDE PTA

At Parkside Montessori, our community of families and educators create an environment where children learn and grow. Key to what makes Parkside special is our strong culture of parent involvement, where families contribute 30 volunteer hours per year and share their time and talents to support school initiatives. Central to this effort is the Parkside PTA, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit made up of dedicated parent volunteers and staff who work together to advocate for the well-being of all students.
