The 2023 - 2024 school year is here!
Welcome back to returning parents and guardians and a special welcome to the families of our newest students! If you are the parent or guardian of a student at Minuteman, you are already a member of the MPA!
The MPA has two main goals: 1) raise money for scholarships, and 2) foster connections amongst parents and build community between the parent and school community. (See the Scholarships page for last year's recipients.) The MPA also organizes and funds Teacher Appreciation Week each spring.

Past events:
On April 10, 2022, the MPA hosted our first in-person event in over 2 years. This Open House gave parents a chance to tour the building, hear from Mr. Clement, purchase Minuteman swag, and make connections with other Minuteman parents! Minuteman parent, Alfonso Velasquez, created this awesome video of the event.
