KMAP Kings Mountain Elementary School Associated Parents

Kings Mountain Associated Parents

Kings Mountain Associated Parents (KMAP) is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization that coordinates the parent-lead groups at Kings Mountain Elementary School (KMES) to maintain long-term success for this award winning school and its students. KMAP has taken over and expanded the duties of the previous fundraising organization at KMES known as Kings Mountain Education Fund. KMAP incorporates the goals of fundraising for KMES programs, promoting the school, and advising the Kings Mountain Children’s Center (KMCC) after-school program into a single non-profit organization. The purpose here is to focus strategically on educational excellence for this small rural school while maximizing the school's limited volunteer resources.

KMAP provides a means of communication and collaboration between KMES families, parent groups, school staff, the community, and CUSD administration. Funds secured by KMAP are to be distributed for the educational and enrichment needs of the students or the improvement of the school site, as determined and prioritized by the KMES Site Council.

Every parent is encouraged to attend any of the board or committee meetings. KMAP monthly meeting locations alternate between 8:00 A.M. at the school and 7:00 P.M. at a rotating location on the coast. Meeting notices are posted on the bulletin board outside of the school office and/or on the school Yahoo group. The KMAP board is made up of an executive board and voting directors/committee chairs. The committees organize various KMAP activities. For more information email kmap-executive-board@googlegroups.com.
