Our Mission:

MRPS Partners in Education (PIE) is a group of parents and caregivers for the schools in the Montpelier Roxbury School District. Our mission is to identify areas of need that are outside of the school budget. Through fundraising, volunteer support, and advocacy, we support the students, school staff, and the larger community. We solicit donations from local organizations, corporations, and individuals. We host community events and we support staff appreciation and community outreach. We provide opportunities for enrichment, build community, and serve as a vehicle for information and advocacy for families, school staff, and the community.

Our Structure

MRPS PIE is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization founded in January 2019. MRPS PIE helps to organize, support, and increase fundraising potential for each of our schools’ parent / caregiver groups.

Governance

MRPS PIE is managed by a board of directors that includes at least one representative from each school’s parent/caregiver groups, each of which are committees of MRPS PIE. We hold open meetings monthly during the school year. Please join us at one of our meetings to find out more!

Meetings are held at Montpelier High School, Room 101, 5:30-6:30pm. 2025/26 meetings: 9/15, 10/20, 11/17, 12/15, 1/19/26, 2/16, 3/16, 4/13, 5/18, 6/15.
