Parents Council Announcements & Committees
Parents Council Committees Get involved and join one of the Parents Council committees and initiatives:
Welcome Committee
A group that helps make MDS the warm school that it's known to be. Whether by welcoming new families or by having all families feel a welcomed part of the community - this committee brings heart to the parent body.
Back to School Bash & Community Events
A committee that plans our biggest kick-off event of the year, the Back to School Bash, that sets the theme for the year and is open to all parents and faculty and staff. They also help coordinate school community events throughout the year.
Book Fair
A school-wide book fair is planned each March for all ages by this committee that fosters a love for reading and learning together. A book fair along with grade and division programs are planned across the school.
Challah Bake
A fun and meaningful evening that coincides with the Shabbat Project in November, where girls in grades 1-8 are joined by their moms/women for the mitzvah of baking challah as a part of a broader Jewish initiative.
Holiday Committee
A group focused on enhancing the chagim for MDS families. Whether through opportunities to shop for special holiday gifts or connect through the holidays, this group really adds to the holiday spirit!
Chesed & Lifecycle
A volunteer group to support our community near and far; and a group for outreach and support of MDS families going through lifecycle events.
