Thanks to the generosity of our MPTS community, we were able to raise over 90% of our Traditional Giving fundraising goal by November 9! Because we did not quite reach our goal, the Traditional Giving campaign is being extended to November 19, so if you or your family members have not sent your contribution in yet, there is still time. Achieving this goal will ensure that the PTA can provide many extra programs and items for our school, such as chess instruction, EOG Prep Materials, classroom technology and additional classroom curriculum materials. Just over half of our MPTS families have donated to Traditional Giving. We would love to close out the campaign with 100% participation! If you have not yet donated to Traditional Giving, or asked relatives to support our school directly rather than buying popcorn or wrapping paper, please do it today! As of November 9, eight classes had met their goal of raising at least $3000. Congratulations to Ms. Clark, Ms. Cunningham, Ms. McBride, Ms. Mercer, Ms. Smith, Ms. Szura, Ms, Trznadel and Ms. Wilkie’s classes! Many other classes are very close so put your child’s class on this list and donate today!
