Good Afternoon Meadowside Families,
Thank you for your kind outreach and support this week. We are so thankful for our partnership with our parents and feel so blessed to be in a community that supports each other.
Thanks For Giving News: Here is a note of thanks from the Thanks for Giving Annual Food Collection Committee. You can see how much our school's participation means to the success of the drive and the major impact that it will have on Milford families. Committee: Thank you to all for your support and participation in this year's event. This project would not be successful without the support and generosity of the Milford community, especially the school system. This year's event collected 331 turkeys, will feed over 300 Milford families and received over $4000.00 in donations that will be used to provide food to those in need. This year, more than ever, we relied on the school system for support and you all responded with donations that exceeded our grandest expectations. Without a doubt, we could not have met our goals without your support and generosity. Clearly, Milford is a small city with a big heart. Once again thank you. My best to each and every one of you for a happy and healthy holiday season and new year.
Thank you to our PTA, Staff, and Families who participated in Math Night this week. We had 3 meets with over 80 Meadowside Mathematicians across all 6 grades participating -- that added up to a tremendously successful event for sure!
