The Return on Your Investment
“Our school counselor helps build the skills necessary to identify and manage big emotions and to interact successfully with peers.”
David Lanuza
Camino Pablo Principal
“Because of your support, we have preserved art and music programs while many other districts have had to eliminate them.”
Dr. Julie Parks
MSD Superintendent“We do hands-on learning with students in the science lab and also collaborate with classroom teachers to extend the learning throughout the rest of the week. My goal is to help students love science, ask questions, and wonder about the world around them.”
Mrs. Drury
Science InstructorEvery student benefits from MEF grants, so we ask every family to contribute.
“I think books are important, and there needs to be someone to take care of them. That’s why we need a librarian!”

“I’m so grateful that we have music teachers who bring the love of voice, instruments, movement, and song into the lives of our kids! If you can escape to music, life’s challenges are never as daunting.”
