  • Promoting unity, cooperation, and involvement within the MBCA family

  • Fostering open and accurate communication between parents and the school

  • Sponsoring Events

    Parent Council sponsors promote community and raise funds to enrich our children’s experience beyond the school’s operating budget. Regardless of the amount of time, talent, or treasure you have to give - there is a place for you to become involved in the life of our school through Parent Council. Whether as a member of the Parent Council Board, a committee chairperson, or a classroom volunteer, our school succeeds when parents are involved.

MBCA Spring Fling

Thank you so much for your support of our 2025 "Black Tie & Boots" Spring Fling! A wonderful time was had by all!

This annual gala generates funds to expand and enrich our JK-12 offerings and provides an opportunity for fun and fellowship in support of our incredible school. The evening includes dinner, silent and live auctions, a wine pull, and entertainment. 

We hope you will Save the Date and make plans to join us on Saturday, March 7, 2026 at Atlanta Country Club! 

If you are interested in supporting the Spring Fling through a business or family sponsorship, or donating in-kind items, services, gift cards, or volunteering, please email the Ways and Means team. We sincerely appreciate any support you may be able to provide!

  • US 101 - Rescheduled Sep 5th

    We have an important update regarding our upcoming US 101 – Upper School & Beyond event. Originally planned for this Friday, the day before the long weekend, we’ve received feedback that many of you may be traveling and unable to attend.

    In an effort to respect your time and give all of our families the opportunity to participate, we are rescheduling US 101 to take place as part of our Upper School Open House on Friday, September 5. Rather than holding two separate events on different dates, we have decided that integrating Upper School 101 with our Open House will allow us to be mindful of your time while still providing the most comprehensive picture of the Upper School journey. This will allow you to hear directly from our high school students and recent graduates, ask questions, and gain valuable insight into the Upper School experience and beyond.

    We will be sending additional details soon regarding the Open House schedule and how US 101 will be included in the itinerary. For now, we encourage you to mark 8:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. on Friday, September 5 on your calendar. If you already plan to attend, you can RSVP at this link, and additional details will follow in another email. We look forward to seeing you there!
