Friends of Mifflin School

The Friends of Mifflin School was officially established June 11, 2012. The purpose of the committee is to engage the East Falls community in a closer relationship with the school community (students, parents, and faculty); and to learn from the school community how The Friends of Mifflin School can best support and collaborate with it.

The forming of the The Friends of Mifflin School reflects the positive spirit that has emerged during the past school year between the Mifflin School community and East Falls residents, and visa versa. It is designed to begin conversations with those currently engaged at Mifflin School and to explore ways that the East Falls community can be supportive. The Friends of Mifflin School is a committee of the East Falls Community Council.
