NAACP Parent Council

Greeting Burtonsville Families!

What a year and a half we have had! I hope you’ve had a great summer and are looking forward to a fantastic year ahead! I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I am Burtonsville Elementary School’s NAACP Parent Council Representatives this year, Nasser Muhammad, Sr and I am looking forward to a great year together.

The Purpose of the Parents’ Council is to provide a forum through which interested citizens may offer assistance, guidance and support to African American/Black parents and students of Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) to pursue the highest quality education possible through encouragement, information sharing, positive motivation, critical evaluation and advocacy.

I plan to identify school-related issues and concerns and seek solutions to those problems/concerns. Our objective is to establish a working relationship between the Parents’ Council, the PTA, faculty and school administrators.

I will be working in partnership with the PTA in developing and supporting programs for our students and parents. I know that these are unprecedented times for us all and we are here to support you with your needs. I will be taking advantage of the virtual platform to try to provide as many opportunities for students and parents, to include guest speakers.

The NAACP Parents’ Council meet online once a month and our schedule is posted online on our website at https://naacppc-md.org. These meetings are open to all parents so please attend if possible.

I am creating a NAACP Parents’ Council coalition this year! Please email me if you are interested and I will get back to you with more details.

I am here to advocate for you and your students throughout the year. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime. You can reach me by email at Nasser.Muhammad@mcpsmd.net

If you have any questions throughout the year, I am here to support you! I look forward to a great year together.

In Friendship,
