The purpose of the MECE Parent Association is to build a strong community among our pre-School and kindergarten parents; support the teachers and staff; and to raise funds to support the school. All parents of MECE students are members of the Parent Association. The MECE Parent Association plans numerous events and opportunities for parents to get involved and participate in the MECE Parent Association, thereby directly supporting the school and our children.
Art with Miss Jillian
Fun-filled art experiences for kids through online art classes, private small group classes and workshops, and parties where we can create together! 
Classes are small to give individual attention and to give the opportunity to share with each other. I focus on process over product to allow kids to become engaged in their own creativity and create with freedom and develop a healthy creative habit!
