FOOD FROM THE HEART FOOD DRIVE



For the month of February, MLS students in grades 5-8 are organizing a food pantry drive for our LCMS churches that have Free Little Pantries at their locations. As a school, our goal is to fill the “heart” near the south door entrance with all the donated items provided by students, their families, and LCMS church members. Be sure to stop by and watch our heart grow during the month! The students have created some fun theme days for the month—pick and choose which to do OR bring an item every day…we appreciate all donations!  

Mayfest planning update:

"3M" Meeting! Mayfest Marketing Mayhem

THURSDAY, February 20th, 5:30 is our next meeting.

What you can expect:

• Marketing Mayfest Mayhem!
• Thursday, February 20^th 5:30- 6:15
• (Short and sweet! We know that evening time with your kiddos is precious!)

• Free Sloppy Joe Supper (begin serving at 5:15)
• Childcare for any kiddos!

We would like to share with our parents what Mayfest is and what needs to be done to make Mayfest run successfully. 

Mayfest is extremely important for the school as it covers much of the cost that is not covered by tuition.  Mayfest makes it possible for us to keep tuition as affordable as possible.Without Mayfest, MLS would not sustainable. And besides, it is FUN!!

We will share the many ways parents can help. We’ll look at:

• How to solicit donations for the school.
• What sponsorships are and how they help
• What kinds of things can be donated.
• What are some “behind the scenes” tasks that need to be covered.

MLS Marketing: We also have some painless, effective ways that parents can assist with promoting Martin Luther School that we would like to share.  



To help us plan for the meal and child care, please RSVP by responding to Mrs. Wolfgram at  wolfgram@lutherschools.org.

"Many hands make the light work."

Thanks in advance--

DID YOU KNOW...

Did you know there is SUPER easy way to let people in our community know about the blessing of Martin Luther School?

Many parents currently in our community and those planning to relocate here are searching for options for their children for their education. What is one place to which people often turn when searching such things? Why, GOOGLE, of course! They "Google" it.

We are missing out on a great marketing opportunity that is painless, effective, and free! Simply "Google" Martin Luther School, go to reviews and share a review. (this seems to work better on a laptop than on a phone.) The more reviews we have also improves our visibility through Google.

After the middle school meeting last week, it was heartening and encouraging to receive validation on where we are, as well as advice for what we need to do to grow. This is an EASY first step for marketing.

Greatschools.org is also another site where you are able to leave a review.

Please take the opportunity to leave a review, if you like, and share the blessing of Martin Luther School!

HELP NEEDED - In the Kitchen

We are looking for extra help in the kitchen to help Miss Carmen. If you are interested in coming in, please take a look at the sign up form below. We are looking for help each day from 9:30-12:00pm to prepare and serve lunch. It is a great way to see students!

MLS GUARDIANS



Martin Luther School Guardians is a program to involve the fathers/father figures at our school. We appreciate the gifts that they can bring whether be assisting with security or engaging with students at in various activities such as lunch, recess, or chapel. Your presence can make such a difference in the lives of our students.

We are asking male volunteers to be present during the day at Martin Luther School. The amount of time available is not limited to a whole day. We would appreciate a volunteer sign up for at least a half day (morning or afternoon) but if you are only able to be present a few hours, please do not hesitate to sign up.

To become a MLS Guardian, please fill out the Volunteer Form and submit. Please fill out and return the Authorization for Background Check to the school office. Forms are also available in the school office. Once the appropriate documentation is submitted, please sign up to spend time at Martin Luther School as the MLS Guardian. Each Guardian will receive a T-shirt to wear during your time in school acting as the MLS Guardian
