TRADITIONAL GIVING 2020

The 2020 Traditional Giving campaign has officially kicked off!  
​
Together we are hoping to reach our fundraising goal of $50,000 with a goal of 100% family participation.  Please remember, no gift is too small! 

HEART MATH TUTORS NEEDED

MPTS is proud to once again partner with Heart Math Tutoring for the 2020-2021 school year.  Heart Math Tutoring is geared towards students in grades 3-5 and is a fun, effective way to make a difference in just 30-60 minutes per week working 1:1 with a student identified as being below grade level in math.  This is an invaluable asset for MPTS students that need a little boost and we need your help!  Click HERE to learn more about being a Heart Math tutor and click HERE to RSVP for one of the Virtual Information Sessions.   

MPTS SUPPORTER SPOTLIGHT

Since 1977, Park Road Books has been the cornerstone of independent bookstores and today is the only full-service independent bookstore in Charlotte. Located just down the road from our school in the Park Road Shopping Center, Park Road Books prides itself on finding the right book for the right person. In the past they have generously provided gift cards for our teachers during staff appreciation week and they routinely host author events and local book clubs. MPTS teacher Ms. Wilfong has firsthand experiences with the author meet and greets which have highlighted her very own children's books. Lets show our support and stop by the store which is currently offering curbside pick up as well as in-store shopping.  Visit www.parkroadbooks.com for more information.

PTA DUES AND INSTRUCTIONAL FEES

The MPTS Parent Teacher Association (PTA), a Gold Member of the PTA North Carolina Congress, drives activities and fundraisers throughout the year to support our school community of students, staff, and families.  We actively work to make our school a better place by providing opportunities and resources above and beyond what CMS provides our school. But….we can’t do it without your help! Even before the start of the school year, MPTS PTA funded:  
  • Summer Start-Up Costs
  • Kindergarten/New Family Welcome Packages
  • Chromebook Covers to safely transport technology
  • Leader in Me Student Planners
  • Leader in Me At-Home Learning Resources
