MaP is the parent/teacher organization of The Magellan Charter School. Its purpose is to assist in the promotion of excellence in programs, facilities, and atmosphere for education. MaP provides aid and services to the school's educational, social, and financial activities. MaP  meetings are held monthly. Meeting times are published in Strait Talk, a bi-monthly newsletter. All are welcome to attend.

Parents are integral to the success of our school. Not only does parental involvement greatly benefit the actual running of the school, but it also conveys an important message to the students--the well-being of our school and the education of our children is of utmost importance to Magellan parents.

At Magellan, parents volunteer their skills and talents in a variety of ways on a daily basis. For example:

• volunteering in the classroom through enrichment activities
• providing supervision during lunch (giving the teachers a brief planning period)
• planning "teacher appreciation" events
• purchasing educational resources through fundraising activities
• organizing community service and cultural arts programs
• chaperoning field trips
• maintaining the physical facilities (painting, upkeep, and cleaning)
• running the copy center
• performing office duties
• publishing a bi-monthly school newsletter
• encouraging community involvement in our school
• arranging social activities for the students to attend after school
• assisting with transportation and carpool procedures
