Bedtime Stories

Thank you so much MWES staff for making Family Reading Night such a special night for the students and families at MWES!

MWES Teacher and Staff Holiday Gifting

Every holiday season we do a school wide monetary collection for our wonderful teachers and staff, and ultimately present each with one cumulative gift card. Simply use the drop down menu to filter the staff list by grade or department, click on the individual's name, add how much you would like to contribute to their gift, and add it to your cart. You can go back and add as many individuals as you would like with all different amounts prior to checking out.

The store will close December 18th to give the PTA time to purchase the gift cards in the appropriate amounts and present them to the staff prior to winter break. Please note that all cards will be from "All Manor Woods Families".

Thank you to our Sponsors!

Manor Woods would like to thank our MIGHTY DUCK Level Duck Dash Sponsor, Panoramic International Armoring. We are so grateful when our very own Manor Woods families reach out to support our school. We can't thank them enough for being our lead sponsor this year and helping to provide every student with a free t-shirt as well as supporting our PTA outreach and events throughout the year. Thank you Panoramic! Learn more at http://www.pggtllc.com/

Duck Dash

Thank you so much to all of our students, families, teachers, and staff for participating in this year's Duck Dash! Together we raised over $28,000 for new recess equipment and other school events and assemblies. Your generosity is greatly appreciated!

Restaurant Nights

Thank you to everyone who joined the PTA for our restaurant nights so far this year -- we have raised over $600! We will not be having a restaurant night during the month of December, but stay tuned for other fundraising nights in the New Year! 

Room Parents

Thank you to all that volunteered to be a Room Parent! Details will be sent out soon!

Mabel’s Labels

Are you tired of all that new gear ending up in the lost and found?
We are here to help solve that problem! Manor Woods PTA has partnered with Mabel's Labels, the best-known brand of durable labels for families - 20% goes back to the PTA. 
Follow this link https://mabelslabels.com/ and click "Support a Fundraiser" in the top right corner and search Manor Woods Elementary School PTA. 
The labels are dishwasher (so label those lunch containers) and laundry safe (hoodies and coats!)

Harris Teeter

Did you know that our school can earn rewards every time you shop at Harris Teeter?! Link your VIC card to MWES today by asking the cashier to link to your school at checkout using your school’s 4 digit code (1993) or link your VIC card on Harris Teeter's app or website (you will need to be logged into your personal Harris Teeter account). Once you've done that, SHOP for HT brand products, or pick up your prescription through our pharmacy to earn money for your school! Last year, 25 participants earned our school over $450. Let's see if we can double that this year! 

Be sure to register for the PTA! It only takes a couple of minutes, and your support allows us to hold all of the events outlined below!
