Friends of Mark Twain (FOMT) Middle School – A 501(c)(3) charitable organization
Our specific and primary purposes are to form a permanent organization of parents/guardians, community members, and school staff interested in enhancing and supporting the programs and facilities of Mark Twain Middle School World Languages Magnet & Arts Academy of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD.net).
We raise and expend funds to achieve our purposes, working in conjunction with the school governance council(s) and administrative personnel in determining the specific projects to be funded. We cooperate with other organizations engaged in similar endeavors to maximize the programs and benefits to Mark Twain Middle School.
We strive to present a positive image of Mark Twain Middle School in the community and raise the profile of the school through outreach, publicity, events, and personal interaction.
Members include parents, legal guardians, or other adult family members who represent our voting members. All administrators, teachers, and staff currently employed at Mark Twain Middle School makeup our non-voting stakeholders. Non-Voting membership is also open to those stakeholders and organizations who support our purpose and mission. There are no mandatory annual dues for members of FOMT but voluntary donations are encouraged from all members.”
