School spirit and student enrichment are on the agenda for Parent Teacher Associations and Organizations district-wide. School policies, procedures, and student well-being are the work of School Engagement Councils, established in Milwaukee Public Schools in 1997.
The combined Lloyd Barbee Montessori School Parent Teacher Organization and School Engagement Council (PTO/SEC) meets every third Wednesday of the month from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Parents and other family members can attend this meeting in person or virtually. Classroom teachers will provide virtual-attendance information before each meeting.
- Parent Teacher Organization members plan programs and special events for the school like our annual Halloween Trunk or Treat, fundraisers, and more.
- School Engagement Council members are volunteers who care about Barbee Montessori School and our students. Council members analyze climate, performance, and budgetary issues, and make recommendations to school leaders. They also provide feedback on curriculum, student performance, and overall student well-being.
Please contact parent coordinator Jazmine Blakley at pinelj@milwaukee.k12.wi.us for more information about our combined PTO/SEC.
