The Parent Association represents all parents in an effort to build and support the MSM Community. Through the many committees that make up the Parent Association, we provide opportunities to become involved in your child's MSM experience. A complete list of these committees, along with a description and committee chair information are located on the Committees attachment.

Who We Are
