Meet your 2017-2018 Parent Council
The Parent Council serves on a volunteer basis as a liaison to the school community in Mendham Borough. The Parent Council meets monthly with Mrs. Toth to discuss matters brought to the attention of the representatives. The primary objective of this Council is to foster dialogue and communication between parents and administration and to provide advice and counsel to administration relating to school-wide topics. The Council is not a substitute for individuals having direct contact with the appropriate school personnel. The Parent Council should not be contacted for the purpose of intervening in disputes between administration or staff members and individual students or parents.
If you have matters you would like to have discussed with the Parent Council, please contact one of your class representatives.
