Hello Family and Friends!
I hope you are doing well and staying healthy despite all these variants! I wanted to let you know about a great event in which I will be participating to support my local school, and by extension my neighborhood and community. The Mount Washington School PTO is hosting its second annual 5K and 1 mile race, TIGERS TAKE ON ALL VARIANTS: The 2021 Covid Can't Keep Us Down Virtual Run/Walk, to raise funds to support educational programming and opportunities for students at our school. In the coming weeks, I, and countless other fellow members of the Mount Washington School community, will be accepting the challenge to run or walk a 5 kilometer or 1 mile course, at our own pace and time of our individual choosing.
The best part though is that everyone - especially the student body at MWS - is a winner! We all benefit from the training, effort, and sense of accomplishment in finishing the race. Our community is brought together and invigorated by the joint endeavor. Supporters are lifted and fulfilled knowing they have supported a cause in need. And, most importantly, our student body will experience more and enriched educational opportunities as a direct result of the funds raised. The PTO at The Mount Washington School helps provide support to our teachers and administration and things like clubs, field trips, playground equipment, and assemblies. The more financial resources the PTO has, the more educational offerings it can help bring to students. Last year this event raised over $3400. Will you help us raise even more?
Please, as you are able, won’t you consider a donation of support for our school and community? Any and all donations help and are whole-heartedly appreciated. Now more than ever, in this time of uncertainty, our students will need any and all the help they can get. Donations are tax-deductible, easy to make, and just feel good! We’ll be sure to post lots of pictures and send ‘thank you’s’ to all supporters when it’s all said and done!
