TRADITIONAL GIVING CAMPAIGN

 TRADITIONAL GIVING is MPTS' annual campaign and main fundraiser that plays a vital role in ensuring our children receive the enriching education, exciting materials and engaging programs necessary to reach new heights.

Chromebooks, SMART Boards, cultural arts performances, and The Leader in Me program are just a few examples of the many ways in which your gifts have helped enrich our childrens' learning experience in past years.
  • Traditional Giving 2021 - October 4-29, 2021
  • 100% of your donation goes to resources and experiences for our children.
  • Our goal is 100% family participation - no gift is too small!
The funds raised during the 2021 TRADITIONAL GIVING campaign will go towards:
  • INVESTING IN OUR TEACHERS - our MPTS staff goes above and beyond each year, but especially over the last year and a half as we’ve all navigated a new normal.  We’d like to provide Professional Development, such as Orton Gillingham training, and team building opportunities for them throughout the year as well as show them lots of appreciation for all they do for our students.  Investing in our teachers in turn helps make our students the best leaders and learners they can be.  Providing support to our teachers whether it be through snacks, afternoon pick-me-ups, and occasional meals as well as funding Staff Appreciation Week is just another way your Traditional Giving contributions help show appreciation for our staff.
  • HANDS-ON INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS - our children have spent the last year and a half in a virtual environment so now that we’re back in-person, we would like to present every opportunity for hands-on instruction through programs like LetterLand and the Scholastic News, StoryWorks, and SuperScience magazines.
  • CUSTOMIZED TECHNICAL RESOURCES & PLATFORMS - this year Traditional Giving will fund software licenses above and beyond what CMS provides, such as IXL Literacy and Math, Raz Kids, and DreamBox Math for the upper grades. These programs enable our teachers to customize each child’s school experience by tailoring extra instruction to their individual needs. 
  • NEW K-2 PLAYGROUND SUN SHADES - we’ve already had our awesome new playground installed but the PTA will fund the playground shades to help with the sun and heat during recess.
