Parents of the Academy
Welcome to The Montgomery Academy POA. The Parents of the Academy is
an organization that provides a structure for parental involvement in
the activities of our school. Our goals are:
- to promote volunteerism of our parents as we strive toward high standards for our children
- to
encourage our parents to give freely of their time, talents, education
and knowledge to programs, projects and financial assistance in a way
that will constitute better relations between students, faculty,
parents and the community
- to promote the image of the Academy through the encouragement of scholastic excellence and development of good citizenship
Without the diligent efforts of our parent volunteers, none of these goals could be attained.
The
influence of the POA can be seen in numerous areas of our school -
funding of the monthly newsletter, Around the Academy, providing
traffic patrol at each campus, and supporting athletic and fine arts
endeavors. We also continue to provide funding for continuing education
and professional development for our faculty.
The volunteer
opportunities for the POA are endless. From athletics to fine arts,
there is something to interest everyone. Events such as the Magazine
Drive, the Eagle Gala, the Mini-Art Show, and the Lower and Middle
School Book Fair provide great fellowship and fun for our parents.
Ongoing projects such as the Lower School supply store, athletic
events, library volunteers, and grounds maintenance provide excellent
opportunities to really feel a part of the Academy's community. Click

sales and concessions and soccer ticket sales and concessions.
Parental
involvement is crucial in our children's lives. Together we can make a
difference in their lives and in the furthering of MA's pursuit of
excellence.
