Make a Difference
Be part of our TEAM
If you are interested in becoming a MCPE Board Member, we would love to hear from you.
We're looking for candidates who can commit to a 3 year term, attend Board meetings once a month and have an active interest in enriching kids' education in Medfield Schools.
This year, we have specific needs for applicants to serve on our publicity, grants and fundraising teams. All skill sets are welcome, and we strive to have a board with diverse backgrounds.
WHAT DOES MCPE DO?
MCPE is an independent, non-profit organization funded to provide system-wide support and academic enrichment for the Medfield Public Schools, with particular attention to academic needs that exceed the parameters of the school budget.
MCPE raises money and awards grants written by staff, teachers, administrators and counselors to support the development of innovative programs, curriculum, and enrichment.
WHY JOIN MCPE AS A BOARD MEMBER?
MCPE offers a fun way for you to connect with teachers, school administrators, and parents of children in all grades.
Board Members lead efforts to raise funds for our K-12 schools, and the Board has the privilege of evaluating grant requests and deciding what grants will receive funding. It’s a very rewarding experience.
WHAT IS THE TIME COMMITMENT?
The time commitment required to join the Board can be organized to fit the schedules of both stay-at-home and working parents.
Each Board member is required to attend a monthly meeting September-May. These meetings, typically held the second Tuesday of each month and usually run about 2-3 hours long.
Each Board member is assigned roles for the year, based on interest, individual schedules, and needs of the board.
WHAT IS THE APPLICATION PROCESS?
The application process for the 2023-24 Board will open in February 2023. Those interested in joining the board will be invited to apply online at that time, and a member of the board will follow up with you to discuss your application.
