The Milton State School Parents & Citizens' Association (P&C) is a group of parents, teachers & local community members who exist to bring our school community together, to better outcomes for our children, via fundraising, discussion, events, ideas & services at school.

The Executive Committee are elected each year at the Annual General Meeting (AGM), held in March and hold their positions for 12 months. The Executive Committee are responsible for the oversight of the P&C, including paid employees across various services.
