Family Teacher Organization

The FTO mission is to provide open communication and understanding between the parents and staff of Moencopi Day School. Our efforts serve to enhance and maximize the education of every student while supporting them in achieving their highest potential.

FTO parents get involved by supporting their students, teachers, and staff. Parents can volunteer to help with class parties or field trips (see volunteer policy in the MDS Policy Manual). They can help set up at a carnival or other school sponsored event. Just ask your child’s teacher what they need or contact the FTO for more information and ideas.

Teachers and staff become involved by helping to plan events that nurture the education of our Panthers. These events may include workshops, tutoring, special family nights (math, science, reading).

The students reap the benefits by the involvement and support of all individuals engaged in the FTO. The FTO supports the educational goals of the school, thus passing those goals onto the students.

When does FTO meet? The FTO will hold informative meetings the first Tuesday of each month. All meetings are held at the school (pending the school’s reopening plan) and everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend.

“Effective parent involvement correlates with students’ earning higher grades and test scores.” (National Institute of Education) “Those schools that favor involvement of parents outperform schools with little parent involvement” “Studies found that academic achievement of low-income students in particular seemed to vary directly with the degree of parent involvement.” “Parent Involvement provides valuable resources in terms of volunteer time and contributes to increased support for the school.”
