PTG

The MDS Parent-Teacher Group (PTG) was founded to promote the growth of Metro Deaf School by:

• Encouraging and maintaining interest and understanding among our school, family, and community for the betterment of the community.
• Creating a forum for parents, teachers, staff and community members to connect, discuss, and support the mission, vision, and progress of Metro Deaf School
• Serving as a line of communication between parents, staff, community, the board, and Executive Director.
• Supporting the academic, social, and emotional growth of the MDS student body.
• Providing, when appropriate, financial support of student and school-related activities.

Our Parent Teacher Group works to connect, support, serve and promote Metro Deaf School students, staff, families and community. Through the efforts of the PTG, we are able to provide additional funding for field trips/school wide events, provide supplies for students in need, and fundraise for multiple endeavors and/or resources. We are always seeking the support of volunteers and/or financial donations to continue our efforts. The Spaghetti Dinner is an annual event that opens Metro Deaf School's doors for families and community members to connect over a meal, bid on Silent Auction items and enjoy a showcase of students' talents. Proceeds from the Spaghetti Dinner have ensured that students are guaranteed transportation to summer camp program(s), new books featuring Deaf/Hard of Hearing and DeafBlind representation, to name a few examples.
