MPS Council Thanks You

by CharlotteB on January 17, 2010

We hope that you all enjoyed the presents that your children chose for you and your families at the Jingle Bells Bazaar in December.  We have had many comments from students, parents & staff that this bazaar was great – well set up, great gifts to choose from, fabulous food and lots of fun.  We couldn’t put together a day like this for the students without your support and we thank everyone who participated as well as those who donated gifts, wrapping and their time.  In addition to the fun had, we were able to raise over $2000 which will be used to support our students and staff in various ways.  If you have any comments or recommendations, we’d love to hear them.  You can contact us through the council website or 613-821-2261 x436 or send a note to your child’s teacher addressed to school council.
