Class Posting & Campus Beautification Day - Saturday, Aug. 25, 8am - 12noon
 

Come help us make Meadows shine for the start of the new school year. Bring the whole family, your tools and gardening gloves. We are only permitted to use volunteers two times a year to work on the campus so let's make this count Mustangs! We have all walked by the school and said, "this needs work!"

 

Come catch up with your friends and see who will be in your class this year. (Lists will be posted at 9am) The Cub Scouts will be selling coffee and donuts in the morning and Pizza at lunch time. Bring your checkbooks - you can do all your SuperStang registrations, buy a new Meadows t-shirt and stock up on Scrip! It's a fun day for the entire family!
