Parents Make A Difference

Too busy to attend PTO meetings? There are many other ways that parents help MRCS.

eScrip:

Sign up with eScrip and every time you shop at Safeway a portion of the money you spend on groceries will be automatically donated to the MRCS PTO to support school programs.  There are no costs to you and it takes just a few minutes to sign up.  All you need is your Safeway card, the school's number - 6536338, and access to www.escrip.com.

Box Tops for Education:

Drop your box tops in the school lobby collection box to help purchase library books, fund activities, and support classrooms.

Friday Fun Night:

One Friday a month, two MRCS classrooms team together to hold an evening of games, crafts, computer time, and refreshments. Admission is $10 per child for three hours of play. Send your child to school for the evening, or volunteer to help lead Friday activities.

Scholastic Books:

Order books for your children when they bring a scholastic order form home. A portion of the proceeds goes directly to your child’s classroom to help with books and supplies. Or shop at one of the two scholastic book fairs and help to support the library.

Volunteer:

Parents are welcome on the playground, in the lunchroom, in the classroom, and at special events. Give some of your time to support the school. Ask your child’s teacher how you can participate.
