Note from Principal Keffeler Hello Meadow Ridge Families,
My heart is full of gratitude. I speak for the PTO as well when I say we were overwhelmed by your attendance and support of the Carnival last Friday. The school was full of happy families, happy staff, and happy volunteers. The Captain even made an appearance!
I am again humbled by the community we have created here. There are so many people to thank that I can't even begin. The PTO Executive Board, the chairs of the event, the treat collectors, stuffy washers and everyone who worked behind the scenes to make it happen, thank you. Even the speed bumps were handled with grace and a spirit of team work. We truly are Meadow Ridge.
Best,
Karen

Carnival Teacher Features On Friday night, we celebrated our 3rd annual Meadow Ridge Carnival and it was a huge success! We had a record number of attendees and ticket sales, and it was wonderful seeing so many of our MR Cardinals enjoying a fun family night out at school. In case you missed it there are still limited spots available for some of the fantastic Teacher Features sold at last week's carnival. Check out the Sign-Up Genius to see what's still available.
PTO needs you! Please consider volunteering to help fill PTO board and chair positions. Volunteers are needed to support the many opportunities, events, and programs that the PTO provides for the students of Meadow Ridge. Time commitments vary and many positions can be shared by 2+people. Email Becky Petersen at beckypetersen@gmail.com with questions or interest.
Staff Appreciation - Next Week Next week is teacher and staff appreciation week at Meadow Ridge! The theme is "Meadow Ridge Teachers and Staff are Superheroes!" The PTO has a fun week planned. Please consider signing up to bring food for the soup and salad lunch we have planned on Wednesday or dessert for Friday's lunch. Any help is appreciated. Thanks for your support!
