PTO fundraisers are vital for enriching our school community and enhancing students' educational experiences. The funds raised support essential programs such as the OWL store, which teaches students budgeting skills, and scholarships that enable participation in extracurricular activities.
We also offer mini art classes to foster creativity, organize field day events for teamwork and physical activity, and fund exciting field trips that bring learning to life. Additionally, these funds help provide teachers with necessary supplies and resources, benefiting students directly.
By participating in these fundraisers, families can make a meaningful impact while enjoying great products. With 50% of each purchase going directly to our initiatives, it’s a wonderful way to support our collective goal of creating a vibrant learning environment. Together, we can make a significant difference in the lives of our students and the entire school community!

Exciting Changes in Food Service This Year!
We’re thrilled to announce some big updates in our food service program this year. We’re revamping how students are served in line, incorporating more scratch-made meals, and introducing a brand-new menu website. The new site offers detailed nutrition facts and allergen information to help you make informed choices.
As we transition to this new system, we appreciate your patience. While we’re working hard to get everything updated, some information may still be in progress. If you have any questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to our Food Service Manager at sfreeman@mmk.wednet.edu.
Our dedicated Food Service Team—Shantel, Becky, Heidi, and Deb—are excited to serve up delicious and nutritious meals this year. Here’s to a great year ahead! Go OWLS!

GO OWLS!
