Message from the Principal
At Mount Markham Elementary, every day brings opportunities for growth, and we love watching our mini mustangs rise to new heights! We believe every child has a special place in our school community, and we strive to provide a deep sense of belonging both in and out of our classrooms. It is through the combined efforts and commitment of our staff, students, families, and community that we are able to provide the best possible education for our students.
Central to this mission is our House System, which plays an important role in creating an environment where students recognize that their positive actions shape our school’s culture. Whether you are a long-time Mustang family or visiting us for the very first time, we are so glad you are here—because at Mount Markham, we are four houses, but one family!
Warm regards,
Principal Rowe

ParentSquare
All schools in our district use ParentSquare for school communication primarily with email, text, and app notifications.
ParentSquare automatically syncs with our student information system to generate an account for each parent, using their preferred email address and phone number. We encourage parents to access their accounts so they can download the mobile app and update their preferences on when and how they are notified.
ParentSquare is a safe, secure, and modern approach to communication and collaboration between school and home. Learn more and get started today by viewing our ParentSquare web page.
