MWMS Newsletter
March 29, 2018
Thank you to all of the families who had dinner at Chipotle last Monday. You helped us raise $709.40 for our PTA. And…as a follow up to the last newsletter, our school community also raised $1011.19 for Grassroots through our Change Matters Winter Concert fundraiser and Penny War campaign. Thank you for being so generous!
Thank you, also, to all of the families who donated to our annual Hoops for Heart fundraiser. Together we raised over $9,000! Thank you for supporting this great cause!
Will your child be in 7th grade next year? As a reminder, effective the first day of school 2018-2019, 1 dose of Tdap vaccine and 1 dose of Meningococcal vaccine are required by the state of Maryland for all students entering Grade 7. If we DO NOT receive proof of immunization, your child will be excluded from school. We are going to have an immunization clinic here at Mayfield in May; I will share ore details once they are confirmed. In the meantime, click here for more information.
Police Patrols at HCPSS Schools. In response to recent events, Howard County police officers are being asked to conduct at least one foot patrol a day at a school (K-12 private and public schools) in their beat. Not every school will receive a visit every day, but schools will be visited regularly. Officer Lapp, our SRO (School Resource Officer) is also at Mayfield on “A” Days.
Today is the deadline to order the MWMS 2017-2018 Memory Book! Memory Books are $22.00 and must be pre-ordered by today, March 29, for distribution at the end of the year. Click here for more information and to order online.
As we end this week a day early, I want to take the time to wish you a wonderful spring break. I realize this one is shorter than usual, but we are still honoring our annual homework-free spring break so that you can make the most of your time together as a family. I hope your kids (and you) enjoy the homework-free time away from school!
Sincerely,
Attention 6th grade families!
Do you know that your child must have certain immunizations before the first day of school, of the 2018-19 school year? Click here for more information.
