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.

🥰 We ended Teacher Appreciation Week with heartfelt notes, thoughtful gifts, favorite treats, and a beautiful collaborative art piece created by our students together.🌈 Each student contributed a watercolor brushstroke to create “Rainbow of Us” by the Elementary Class of 2025–26 alongside Abby Kate Burns — a special piece that will now be displayed in our office as a reminder of the creativity and connection within our school community.Teachers were also treated to a pizza lunch from Grimaldi’s Pizzeria, mini toasts and mini açaí bowls from Toastique, and refreshing spa water provided by our PTO. Teachers also received gift cards from McAlister’s Deli and Sip Stir Coffee House.Thank you to our PTO, room moms, families, and local business sponsors for making this week so meaningful for our teachers!#mcountryday #flowermoundtx #bartonvilletx #lantanatx #northlaketx ...
