about us
The Millwood Home and School Association, co-ordinating with the Principal, VP, and staff, organizes the majority of parent volunteers & special events at our school. Funds raised are allocated to various additional programs, presentations, concerts, field trips, and equipment that could not otherwise be provided using Ministry / TDSB funds.
Our association strives to enrich and enhance the education and school experience for ALL students at Millwood.
Millwood Home and School Association is a membership-based, voting, active group of parents of students attending Millwood Junior Public School. Membership is open (and encouraged!) for all parents and caregivers - join us and get involved in providing these opportunities that enrich the educational experience for your child!
We believe that collaborative partnerships between families, teachers, and staff make a valuable difference in students' school experience, supports teacher satisfaction and engagement and nurtures positive child-parent communication and relationships.
Our parent Association meets online monthly with school administration and teacher representatives to plan upcoming initiatives, hear about specific student and teacher academic needs, and make plans for the future. Meetings are casual, and are focused on being Efficient, Effective and Enjoyable.
Membership is not required if you'd like to attend a meeting, but is required to vote. As part of the Ontario Federation of Home and School Associations (OFHSA), we encourage memberships, available for an annual cost of $25 (valid October 1 - Sept. 30).
Fees are used to fund OFHSA efforts in advocating for education-related initiatives across Ontario. Many past successes prevail today! Purchase a membership here: https://www.zeffy.com/en-CA/ticketing/millwood-home-and-school-annual-membership
We look forward to meeting you!
