Raised to the power of Mirman

Welcome to the PSL!

The Parent Service League (PSL) supports Mirman School through community building, school service, and fundraising programs. Information and resources for all the activities and services provided by the PSL can be found on this page. This unique group is made up entirely of family volunteers. All families can get involved by volunteering for various committees, organizing our fun events, fundraising for annual giving, and much more. Get involved today and help raise our community to the power of Mirman.
