Welcome Parents and Guardians!

Parent Circle is the parent connection committee for Mountain Sage. Unlike a PTO or PTA, Parent Circle does not manage a budget or handle fundraising. Instead, this committee is all about making new friends, connecting, sharing, and communing. If you want to take part in building an enlivened parent community, support and model a culture of service and care for the children, participate in creatively developing resources to make the school a better place, or gain diverse perspectives on school issues and community, then this is for you. If you simply want to connect and share ideas, then Parent Circle is for you, too! All parents are welcome, always.

Parent Circle Mission

The mission of Mountain Sage Parent Circle is to support a culture of service, to enliven community, and to facilitate parent dialogue. 

We do this through three key actions:

  1. Holding joyful space and community for all parents at regularly scheduled meetings;
  2. Hosting and supporting core events: Mid-Winter Faire, Winter Warmth Drive, parent socials, and other key events;
  3. Supporting other school and teacher needs: teacher appreciation, Classroom Creations for spring fundraiser, volunteer needs, and other community care efforts.

Joyful Community

We are always looking for ways to encourage joyful connection for adults and families in our community outside of special events and school festivals. 

Core Events

Parents are essential to supporting a culture of volunteerism for important school events: Mid-Winter Faire, Winter Warmth Drive, Fairy Room, Bike to School Day, and more.

Program Support

There are lots of ways that parents can support the school program throughout the year beyond classroom and event volunteering. Connect with others to discuss what and how.
