SAVE THE DATE! Last Parent Village Meeting of the Year!
Monday, May 29th
6:00 - 7:30 p.m.
MVWS Social Hall
Enjoy free childcare (reservation required) while getting updated on what our fabulous MVWS committees have been up to. We’ll celebrate what we’ve accomplished, "10 years and growing," and brainstorm an excellent plan for the exciting events ahead. New Committee Chairs will also be discussed, so start thinking about whether you would like to step in! Let’s not forget how important it is to come together as a parent body and be an active part of what makes MVWS so beautiful for our children. Looking forward to seeing you all there.
Your PV chair, Reggie. :)

The 7th & 8th Grade Evergreen class had a wonderful field trip to Joann’s with our Handwork teachers, Ms. Oshiro (present teacher) and Ms. Cathrine (past teacher). We had fun choosing fabric for our final sewing project — pajama pants! |

Hi Villagers - the Gala is quickly approaching and there is some incredible stuff up for grabs this year. Here are a few things we want you to keep in mind (More info is available www.MVGala.org)
* DESSERT is scarce - start planning with your table now
* People are already preparing to bid on the McCARTHY DINNER - this is going to be a fierce competition - see the attached sheet for more info and get ready to BID
* Credit Cards will be accepted this year for all purchases (bar tickets, auction items, etc.) but the school incurs a fee for every transaction so CASH or CHECK are always preferred (and cash tips for bartenders)
Gala Donations - we are still collecting GIFT CARDS, so if you own a business or frequent a local business and want to request a tax-deductible donation on our behalf please email me ASAP and I will gladly provide the forms
Gala Volunteers - anyone available for day-of set up and/or volunteer during the
event - please email me ASAP
with gratitude for all things Gala,
Andi
