The MCDS Parent Teacher Organization (PTO)

What is a Parent Teacher Organization?

A Parent Teacher Organization, or PTO, is a school-based group made up of parents, teachers, and sometimes staff who work together to support the school community. Its purpose is to strengthen the connection between home and school while helping create a better experience for students, families, and educators.

  • Builds community among families, teachers, and school leaders
  • Organizes events and volunteer opportunities.
  • Raises funds for school needs, enrichment, and special projects.
  • Supports teachers and staff with appreciation efforts and classroom resources
  • Helps create a positive, welcoming school environment.

About MCDS PTO

At Montessori Country Day School, our Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is where connection and collaboration come to life. The PTO brings families, teachers, and staff together to strengthen the school community and enhance the school campus experience. Every parent is invited to play a part, whether through leadership, committees, or occasional volunteer support, because each contribution helps shape the supportive and engaging environment that makes MCDS so special.

Started by dedicated parents who wanted to give back to the community that has given so much to their families, the MCDS PTO creates friendships, builds connection, and provides opportunities for families to make a lasting impact.

2025-2026 Highlights include:

  • Launching the first official MCDS PTO.

  • Creating the school’s first fundraising initiatives.

  • Partnering with local businesses including 407 BBQ, Buttermilk Sky Pies, Earl’s Pizza, and our Bake Sale.

  • Helping fund and source new playground equipment.

  • Supporting the installation of a new garden pathway.

  • Coordinating the first-ever Spring Clean-Up Day.

  • Setting up a new volunteer structure with Board roles, Committee Chairs, and Committee Members

Teamwork Makes the Dream Work!

Our MCDS PTO established itself in 2025 and has already accomplished so much. We have built bridges in our Flower Mound community with local businesses, we have brought families together for local events, and have raised funds for school campus improvements. 

What We Have Accomplished Together

MCDS Playground
As a PTO, we helped fund, source, and install new playground equipment as well as improve and fix existing structures.
Garden Path and Planting
Our PTO brought the school community together to create a garden path and held a successful MCDS Family Spring Planting Day with resources provided by local stores in Flower Mound vicinity.
Community Clean Up Day
As a community, we helped hold our first annual community clean up day at the school. These accomplishments were made possible by the generosity, time, and support of the MCDS community. Together, we are building something lasting for our children and families.
Skip the dishes and join the MCDS PTO for dinner on Wednesday, October 7, from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. at 407 BBQ in Argyle. 10% of sales come back to our PTO to fund a Little Library for our school’s garden area, so every plate helps put more books in our students’ hands. Friends, family, and alumni are all welcome. Make sure you mention MCDS when you order!

Montessori Country Day School - Flower Mound
Our students marked Peace Day with artwork inspired by what peace means to them. We love seeing big ideas expressed through little hands and creative minds.“Peace is what every human being is craving for, and it can be brought about by humanity through the child.”

🕊️ Celebrating Peace at MCDS 🕊️This week, our MCDS community came together to celebrate the International Day of Peace through music, movement, art, and reflection.Our students gathered to sing “Light a Candle for Peace,” took part in a peaceful walk around our school, created artwork inspired by peace, and most importantly, shared their own thoughts about what peace means to them.Their answers remind us that peace can be found in the simple things: kindness, friendship, helping others, listening, and making room for everyone. We’re so proud of the thoughtful hearts and voices growing here at MCDS. 🌎🕊️#mcountryday #flowermoundtx #bartonvilletx #argyletx #lantanatx ...
