The MME PTA is currently planning its major fundraising event of the year, the 20th Annual Auction.  We will be celebrating this huge milestone with the theme, “Enchanted Forest”on March 11th, 2023.  We hope you will consider making a donation to this year’s auction to help us reach our goal of providing all of our children with the opportunities necessary to become successful as community members. 

At Marguerite Montgomery Elementary School (MME), the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) works so all families in our school community, regardless of income, education level and/or primary language, have full and equitable access to programs that enrich the school’s standard curriculum.  Our PTA relies completely upon donations, grants, and fundraising in order to bring culturally diverse, relevant, and engaging activities to each-and-every classroom, student, and family on our campus. 

MME serves the highest percentage of underprivileged and underserved children in the Davis school district.  Approximately 55% of the students at MME are identified as socio-economically disadvantaged as defined by state and federal criteria, making us a Title I school in the state of California. This is the highest percentage among all DJUSD elementary schools. Poverty is an environmental stressor that research has shown can negatively impact academic achievement.

The money raised by the MME PTA pays for curriculum enrichment programs, field trips, classroom supplies, fine arts opportunities, library books, bilingual family engagement & communications, computers, science programs, and family fun events.
