 Thank you to everyone who has generously responded to our call for playground equipment donations. Almost everything from our wish list has been claimed, but there's still a couple of items left:
http://a.co/j7mehLV Donations can be mailed directly to school at the following address: Medfield Heights Elementary ATTN: Denise Stanley 900 Woodbourne Ave. Baltimore, MD 21212 Or you can mail your items to your own residence and send them into school with your child. Either way works! Thanks for helping to make recess fun for the kids! Please let us know if you have any questions.  Come back to school in your pajamas and enjoy a story read aloud and book-related craft with your classmates on Tuesday, October 29th from 5:30-6:30 pm!
 Back by popular demand! Join MHES friends, parents and teachers for a beer and raise $$ for the school from 12:00-6:00 pm at Union Craft Brewing -- what a great way to spend a Sunday this Fall! $1 donated to the PTO for every beer purchased.
 The delicious goodies ordered during the Claire's Gourmet fundraising drive will be delivered to Medfield Heights Elementary on Tuesday, October 29th. We need volunteers to help unbox the treats and organize them so that parents and guardians can pick them up quickly and efficiently throughout the afternoon. Please SIGN UP HERE to help!
 If you can volunteer to work a shift at the Book Fair please SIGN UP HERE!
Volunteering at the Scholastic Book Fair is very low key. Volunteers run the cash register, help kids to select their favorite books, and help kids to count their money at check out. You'll be placed alongside seasoned Book Fair volunteers and will be shown how to use the register. It's a fun and important event for the MHES community and we appreciate your help!
