Our call to action is simple: be a part of the MPA school community! The goal of the Parents Association is to provide clear, accessible ways for parents/guardians to be active participants in the quality of community that surrounds the student body collectively. Efforts are being made each month to invite you in to learn, support, and lead in partnership with faculty and staff in a variety of ways. Check out what’s coming up this month! Let us know if you see new or different ways to strengthen our efforts by emailing PA@moundsparkacademy.org.
Panther Sports Committee Kickoff Meeting!
Saturday, October 12, from 10 AM-12 PM
Porter Conference Room
Everyone is welcome! The PA is actively seeking new members for the Panther Sports Committee.
Please contact Christine Larson at clarsonPA@moundsparkacademy.org.The Panther Sports Committee is hoping for your input if you are passionate about athletics at MPA.
If you have a sporty Lower School student and see MPA athletics in your future this is a great place to join the team! If you have a Middle School student who plays club sports and you’re not sure how that translates to MPA sports, this is the spot for you. If you have an Upper School athlete who is hoping to play their sport in college, we may be able to connect you with like-minded families. The Panther Sports Committee will determine topics of interest and work closely with Dan Haase, athletic director to support MPA athletics.
