Meadows Elementary School PTA
Friday E-Mail Reminders
Happy Friday!  Enjoy your weekend!
  Just 22 days left to raise $900,000 for our schools next year.
          
The 2013-2014 MBEF campaign is coming to a close and we have some serious money to raise! Meadows school is at 70% participation on a goal of 100%.  Please see the attached class participation percentages to see if your teacher will be getting a classroom bonus. If so, your teacher will be able to spend the bonus on supplies to use THIS year! If your child's classroom has not yet earned the bonus, there is still time to make that happen. If you have yet to give to the campaign, please consider donating or pledging today at www.mbef.org. Every donor matters and every dollar counts.

Thank you to all those families that have stepped up to keep all our amazing teachers and incredible music program, among many other programs that MBEF supports!

MBEF looks forward to hearing from you, thank you for your support!
