Oak Hill Montessori Parent Association

The Oak Hill Montessori Parent Association, known as OHMPA (pronounced "oom-pah"), was created to support Oak Hill's administration and staff in carrying out the mission of the school, which is to provide a learning environment that embraces Montessori principles, fosters a love of learning and empowers children to develop to their full potential.

OHMPA does this by providing a coordinated means of volunteering, by organizing and hosting social and informational events that enrich the community and by participating in fundraising events as designated by our Head of School.

Membership & Participation

All parents and guardians of children currently enrolled at Oak Hill are voting members of OHMPA and are invited to participate in OHMPA general meetings. Members are also eligible to serve on the OHMPA Board or as Committee Chairs.

One of OHMPA's primary roles is to coordinate volunteers. All kinds of volunteers are needed at the school. It's just amazing the range of talents that are needed—everything from people who can run the after-school chess club to people who have a talent for creating quilts for the Spring Auction.

OHMPA Meetings

General meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of every other month during the school year. To accommodate the many different schedules of Oak Hill parents, we alternate meeting times between the morning after drop-off and the evening. For example, September's meeting was in the morning and November's meeting was in the evening. Meeting minutes are kept in the office and are available for viewing by all Oak Hill parents/guardians.

Committee meetings are scheduled by each Committee Chairperson. Please contact the Committee Chairperson of the committee you are interested in for more information on scheduled meetings.
