What's going on this week? August 12-19

Monday night- 6 pm at MPS, first PTA meeting.
This is open to anyone. Come and see what we are about...promise we won't rope you into anything.

Tuesday- Back to School breakfast for teachers. Help welcome our wonderful teachers back! There are still three spots to be filled for food and cleanup. You can find them here:http://www.mpsmespta.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html. Thanks to Natalie Coffman, Erica Ferdinand, and Kelly Bennett for organizing this!

Thursday- Open Houses at MPS and MES, overlapping times. 
You will be able to renew your membership, or obtain a membership for the first time. Remember, your membership needs to be renewed each year. This year you will have some in house perks that go along with your membership, like discounts for some family events, and possibly preferred seating. 

Want to avoid any lines? You can go to the PTA website, under Join Us!, and print the form and bring it with you or send it in with your child when they start school (teachers will put your order in the PTA mailbox). Thanks to Cristine Doyon and Amy Winchester and Cari Yarmus for planning this out!

We will try to have our new magnets available at the Open Houses as well ($4 each). 

Stay tuned for info on our new ELECTRONIC directory! Yay (go Cari Yarmus for organizing this).

We did not have enough spirit wear orders over the summer to have shirts available for the kids on the first day of school. We will have a fall ordering time though, so be on the look out.
