✨🍀 HOW Lucky Are We?! 🌈✨
Over the holiday weekend last month, 11 of our absolutely fabulous teachers and admin headed off to the incredible GYTO – Get Your Teach On Conference (and even GYLO – Get Your Lead On for our administrators 🙌).
They didn’t just sit and listen… they learned hands-on, practical tools they can use right here in our classrooms — and then came back and shared concrete takeaways with our entire staff at Tuesday’s meeting the very next day. Talk about an immediate ripple effect! 💥📚
Not only did they get the benefit of the highly informative conference sessions, but they also got a weekend away and some probably much needed and DEFINITELY well-deserved bonding time outside of the classrooms. ⚡️
And here’s the truly special part: 💙
Thanks to YOUR fabulous MCN support and generous donations, this entire experience was fully funded for them — from travel to lodging and everything in between. This level of support for teacher and leadership development is honestly unheard of, and it speaks volumes about the kind of parent community we have. ❤️
We are so grateful to be part of a school where teachers feel invested in, supported, and inspired — because when our educators grow, our students win 🦅✨
THANK YOU, MCN families, for making opportunities like this possible! We are truly grateful. 💫🍎

PAST YEARS
MCN Programs You Support!
The MCN prioritizes using the donated funds to offer our students, families, and staff both educational and community building programs throughout the year.
These take a big commitment from volunteers and are funded by your donations to make them happen!
The MCN also works with the administration and MATES Board of Directors throughout the year to identify school needs and wish list items we can donate funds toward or purchase directly. We raised enough money last year to do so much for the school!
This year, we are happy to share that these requests have come in, and we are excited to help MATES in a variety of ways. We work closely with the school to ensure that your donated money is used for items and projects that are requested from the MATES Board of Directors, committees, and teachers. We value their planning and the goals they set for MATES Programs and campus needs.
