See you all this Saturday from 3-6pm for our MPE Spring Carnival.

SILENT AUCTION AND RAFFLE BASKETS

The Silent Auction is online at https://app.memberhub.gives/mpecarnival2024 and will begin on April 5th (you are welcome to have a sneak peek at our auction items as our site will go live on 4/5/24, but please know we are still uploading more items all week). All bidding is done online. The auction ends at 6pm on Sat. April 20th. Feel free to share the auction website with friends and family.
- There are over $15,000 of donated items in our auction. Examples of items include summer camps, local businesses and attractions in NC (Umstead, Marbles, etc.) , orthodontic treatments, UNC Wellness family memberships, etc. We also have amazing MPE experiences including breakfast bunch with the counsellors, a dance choreography with Ms. Rochelle up for raffle and more. Let's not forget the coveted front parking space as well as front row seats to the 5th grade moving up ceremony.
- This year, there is a BUY NOW option so check out the items early in the week before they sell.
- You can set a proxy bid with your maximum bid.
The 12 Raffle Baskets were created by all our classrooms through our room parents. They will go live for auction on April 8th. We will upload a list of the basket contents to our silent auction website. Mrs. Pauls will draw 12 winners on April 22nd. Enter the raffle basket draws in one of 2 ways:
- online through our silent auction website. Bundles of tickets can be purchased and we will physically enter a ticket into the appropriate basket draw.
- in person at the Carnival using Fun Tickets (we will ask you to write your name and phone number on each ticket you enter).
- teacher experiences

OUR FAMILIES MAKE THIS HAPPEN- PLEASE VOLUNTEER

As you know, this large event can't happen without our amazing parent volunteers. We do need your help to bring this event to our school community. Sign up for a volunteer shift at the carnival and receive 2 extra raffle tickets.

We are so grateful for your participation in the Kids Heart Challenge♥️. We exceeded our goal and raised $11,030.43 to help heal hearts! Most importantly, we had 232 students register to watch the hands-only CPR video with their families. THANK YOU for helping to create a community of lifesavers!

The final week of the MPE Maniacs Marathon is here.

For all who registered by the Feb 24th deadline, this is a fun way for your family to get moving and having some fun! Your child will walk, run, skip, or hop 25.1 miles (no bikes).

For every completed mile, children will put a bead on their necklace. There will be a special bead for the 13 mile mark and the 26.1 mile mark. This is a virtual race except for the last mile. The virtual race will end on Thursday, April 11th.

We will have the children finish the final 1.1 mile at school on Friday, April 12th at 10:15am. Parents are welcome to join. Remember to wear your Maniacs T-shirts if you purchased them..

Don't forget .

Thank you Mrs. Cupick for bringing the Maniacs Marathon back to MPE this year.

PTA BOARD AND POSITION INTEREST MEETING BEFORE FINAL MILE at 9:15AM

Our PTA will have some big roles to fill for the next year's board. Several of our clubs and events cannot be held without PTA leadership, including: Boosterthon, Odyssey of the Mind, Reflections, Cultural Arts, field day and our spring carnival, to name a few.

Please consider stepping up if you're at all interested! We have scheduled an in person meeting before the Maniacs Marathon on April 12th (at 9.15am after drop-off) for parents interested in knowing more about the roles
