Fundraising Initiatives

The PTO is proud to invest directly in the experiences that help our students and teachers thrive. Donations make it possible for us to provide enriching programs, bring engaging assemblies to the school, support teachers and staff, enhance technology and equipment, and host community-building events that bring families together. Every contribution goes right back into strengthening our school community and creating opportunities that benefit every student.

 
How we raise funds...
Students, families, teachers, staff, and local businesses work together to accomplish these goals by:
  • Supporting our Duck Dash- FUN RUN!
  • Participating in Restaurant Nights
  • Buying Spirit Wear
  • Joining the PTO
  • Submitting Box Tops for Education 
  • Shopping at Harris Teeter, Amazon Smile, or other local and national retailers that give back to schools!
On behalf of our students, teachers and MWES community, thank you for supporting our school. We appreciate your generosity and we look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with you.

 



Duck Dash

*The 2026 Duck Dash will take place on OCTOBER 12th!* 

 

The Duck Dash is our annual fun run obstacle course where students get to have fun, work as a team, and help raise money to support their school! Leading up to the big day, the PTO organizes weekly spirit days, grade-level challenges, and prizes for participation and top fundraisers. And, of course, DJ Superhero joins us for the Duck Dash to make the day extra exciting and rewarding! 

 

Families are welcome to volunteer or come cheer on our students as they celebrate all of their hard work!

 

CLICK HERE TO REGISTER YOUR STUDENT and begin FUNdraising!

 

Every student will receive a Duck Dash T-Shirt sponsored by local businesses. Fundraising is not required to participate but is a great opportunity for students to see how their efforts can directly support the programs, events, and experiences the PTO provides throughout the school year.

Donors contributing $250 or more (cash or in-kind) will also have their logo appear on the back of our FUN RUN T-shirts, which will be worn at the FUN RUN, on fields trips and all-around town for years to come by some of the cutest advertising representatives you could ever hope for!
