About the Carmelo Parent Organization
Our Mission
The CPO’s mission is to support and strengthen the entire Carmelo community. We partner with teachers, staff, students, and families by funding classroom resources, providing monthly enrichment activities and experiences for students, and hosting events that bring families together and build a strong sense of community. Through fundraising, volunteering, and family involvement, the CPO provides support that enhance the school experience for every Carmelo student.

Cathryn "Cat" Ainsworth
President
Cathryn is in her third year with the CPO, beginning as a Room Parent and now serving as President. She loves giving her time and creative energy to supporting Carmelo, its teachers, and the community her son gets to grow up in. By day, Cathryn works in Risk Management and Compliance, but some of her favorite work happens alongside fellow parents finding fun ways to support Carmelo’s little cubs.
