A Message from Our Lunchroom:
We are in desperate need of volunteers in the lunch room, especially during the K & 1st grade lunches (10-11am)! If you are able to spare an hour, we would appreciate your time and help. This is a fun way to interact with Mabry students. If you're interested in volunteering, please sign up for a shift HERE

Also, as a friendly reminder, students bringing their own lunch from home must also bring silverware. The lunchroom cannot afford to supply silverware to students not purchasing a lunch. Thank you for your understanding.
WANTED: 2021 AUCTION CHAIRS
Thank you all for your amazing support of the Mabry Auction. We hope everyone had a blast!

In an effort to have another successful event in 2021, we are looking to fill the Auction chair positions as soon as possible. If you like event planning, decor, and having fun...then this volunteer opportunity is for you. Grab a friend or two and plan the party of the year while giving back to your school!

If you're interested, please reach out to Yanira Teitelbaum.
