Message from the MPTO President

December always makes me think of traditions.  And while an important part of the season is continuing them, as a PTO we have also really enjoyed starting some new ones this year - including our McDonald's Fundraiser!  Not only was it a blast to see so many families there after school but we raised $641! They said it was a record day of sales for that location - THANK YOU for your support!  


Wishing all of our Howe-Manning & Fuller Meadow principals, staff, teachers, students and families a wonderful holiday season! 

HOLIDAY H.E.R.O.

It has been so remarkable seeing the kindness and generosity of our students this month.  Kids from both Howe-Manning & Fuller Meadow donated over $650 of their own money to Neighbors in Need through the Holiday H.E.R.O. Program! Photo of a few FM & HM students handing the money over to Mary and Judy, who coordinate the Neighbors in Need program - they were so appreciative of the donation! 

SPIRIT WEAR & RAFFLE WINNER

We have a few Howe-Manning (Youth Large & Youth Med) and Fuller Meadow (Youth Med & Youth Small) T-shirts available for purchase. Just $20 and we will drop them off to you! Send us an email: ptomiddleton@gmail.com  Or you can order online for delivery after the holidays:  Home (mascogear.net)


And congratulations to Erin Bennett - the winner of our 01949 hat! 

Holiday Bazaar

Our First Annual Holiday Bazaar was a huge success! Our student entrepreneurs had incredible products and all the shoppers were thrilled with their purchases. The feedback from this event has been overwhelmingly positive and we can't wait to bring it back next year!

CURRICULUM ENRICHMENT NEWS
Wenham Museum Field Trip

Our third grader students went on a field trip to the Wenham Museum last week! Students were able to explore life in rural colonel Massachusetts with authentic hands-on experiences.  Be sure to ask your third grader what their favorite learning station was!
