Family Connections / PTO

At Marcy, we believe students thrive when families and community members feel connected, supported, and included. Family Connections is our version of a parent-teacher organization (PTO). We bring together caregivers, staff, and neighbors to strengthen our community and help students succeed, both in and out of the classroom.

Whether you can give an hour, an afternoon, or a year of leadership, you are welcome here.

We also welcome contributions for supplies teachers need.
