Meadows is down to 43 families who have not responded to us about MBEF. Some of you said "I can't this year, but how else can I help?" and that's OK. The remaining 297 families said "yes, I will support MBEF." We would like to say thank you to all families who at least have responded to the emails and phone calls you have certainly received by now, for appreciating the time someone took to contact you. Meadows is at a near record 87% participation. Last year we were a little higher, and it would sure be great if those last couple families could decide to make their mark today, the last day of our MBEF appeal.

One teacher in particular needs our support, Mrs. Beiting has not yet reached even the 75% required to get the lowest participation bonus. Four other teachers are 1-2 families away from a 100% participation bonus, Mrs. Radl, Mr Chao, Ms. Ames, and Mrs. Sokol. Families in these classes can make an extra big impact if they donate today. Current class standings, click here.

Meadows receives much more in grant support than we raise. Why? Because MBEF recognizes that each of us can only do what we can. No donation you make is too small to be important. Please be a part of the village here at meadows where we all come together for our kids in a way not easily replicated at other sites. Give what you can and do what you can. MBEF will certainly give back.
