Community Council
Community Council is Desert Marigold’s Parent-Teacher Organization. We meet monthly and quarterly to support our students’ educational experience, our teachers, and the school as a whole. All individuals in our school community are welcome!

Mission
The Community Council (previously ‘Parent Council’) supports the mission of Desert Marigold School and serves as a collective voice by facilitating communication between the governing bodies, administration, and families. The Community Council exists to develop strong social bonds by supporting parent education, school activities, active volunteerism, celebrations and special events; thereby building a vibrant community.
