We continue to be extremely grateful for all of the support the MPTO has received this school year.  From the generosity of our sponsors, to the Middleton families who volunteer for events and make donations, and the relationship we have with the school staff, teachers, school committee and administration - we couldn't do what we do for our students without all of you.  

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! Enjoy the break and we will see you next year! 

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! 

Thank you, thank you, thank you to our Gold Sponsors - the Middleton Turkey Trot for their generous donation of $1,500 to the MPTO!  Donations like this help to fund student field trips, enrichment programs and other PTO funded events! 

Pictured below are Angela and Alex Foley who accepted the check on our behalf from Michelle and Courtney, who organize this incredible event!

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

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!

Neil Nichols, Jr. once again thrilled our students with his incredible artistic talents and world geography knowledge this week as he drew maps entirely from memory!  Our 2nd graders spent the day continuing their learning of the continents.  Each grade at Howe Manning saw a different show tied to their curriculum - 3rd grade focused on state history, 4th grade North America, 5th grade the history of the United States and it all came together for 6th grade in the World Map Challenge!  Our students truly enjoyed this interactive event - and all came home with a small prize from Neil!
