LAST CALL!  HONORARY SERVICE AWARDS - SEEKING NOMINATIONS!

Every year we recognize those who have provided exceptional commitment to our community.  Though we are no longer physically on the TLM campuses, The TLM PTA would still like to recognize those parents, TL and Mariposa Staff, and teachers who have gone above and beyond in service to our students and community.

 

If you know of someone who is deserving of this award, please provide the name of nominees along with a brief statement as to why this person deserves to be honored. Recipients of the Award will be recognized in our June Weekly News. Please submit your nominations to Carrie Fromm at [email protected] by Wednesday, May 27, 2020.  Thank you in advance for your participation!

With our schools facing state budget cuts, your gift to SCEF is more important than ever before. SCEF is $250,000 away from our $2.8 million fundraising goal - that’s fewer than 200 gifts at the per student ask! If you have the capacity to donate now, please help us fund educator positions and whole-child programs for next school year. While our request is $1,500 per student, any and all gifts make a difference!

Donate today online at https://www.scefkids.org/donate/.
