A NOTE FROM THE PRINCIPAL
We hope you enjoyed your long weekend and that the students are ready to get back to learning! Thursday we sent home information on our annual fundraiser. If you had a student at MPMS last year, it is the same pick-a-date donation platform we used last year. We found this to be easy for families to complete and it doesn't require collecting money or distributing items. Supporters are able to make straight donations to our school which help us with Oiler Drop days, end of year field trips, classroom supplies and more! Information and a how-to video is included below. Please get your student signed up ASAP - we go LIVE on Wednesday! This fundraiser is incredibly important to us and we appreciate your participation!
Donations for Hoops for Hunger are due this Friday and permission slips must be turned in a week later. If your student wishes to attend on November 2nd, please see the flyer below for all the details!
