Meadow Park Food Pantry

So excited to partner with St. John the Baptist Greek Orthodox Church! They are taking over organizing and supporting our Meadow Park food bank/toiletry closet. We have been working closely with our amazing counselors to be a resource for our Meadow Park families. Thank you all for your support. We can always use more nut butters, canned pasta sauce (no glass jars), pasta, and men's deodorant. Donations can be dropped off in the office.

JOg-A-Thon (Fall)

Meadow Park students will be jogging around the school.  This one and only PTO fundraiser helps to generate money that goes towards the following purposes:

• Transportation costs associated with field trips and after school programming
• Facilities Improvement projects such as Paint, and Bark dust.
• Classroom Equipment and Supplies - Art Lit, Planners, Media carts, Calculators, School Posters, Microscopes and science supplies, etc...

If your student hasn’t done so already, we encourage them to use Pledgestar (LINK: https://pledgestar.com/meadowpark/) to create an account where people can donate.

Through Pledgestar, donation information can be sent out via email and social media, helping to generate more money from people who aren’t just neighbors and family friends.

Our goal is to raise $20,000!!! This will help to improve our school and create opportunities for students.

Let’s set a record this year and have fun doing it!

Art literacy

You can help out in your child's classroom!  No artist talent or experience necessary!  All materials provided!  

Art Literacy consists of attending a one hour training meeting (either morning or evening) and then either teaching or assisting with an art lesson/project in your child's class.  We will do this three times during the school year.  The lesson and materials are all provided and it's easy and fun!

 If you are interested in either teaching or simply assisting in your child's classroom with art literacy, please email wendybennion@gmail.com  We'd love to have you join our team!

Our first training meeting will be Tuesday, Oct. 10th.  This first training meeting will be an extra fifteen minutes for a quick orientation.  We'll have a morning training from 9:15-10:30 am and an evening training from 7-8:15 pm.  Please come to whichever session works best for you.  We will be presenting three artists/cultural art styles this year: African Adornment, Norman Rockwell and Gothic Gargoyles.  It's going to be fun!

If you know anybody who might be interested in helping with art lit (teaching/presenting or assisting), please forward this email to them.  They can subscribe by clicking the link below:
