Memorial High School PTO-Parent Teacher Organization

THANK YOU so much to everyone who contributed to making Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week AMAZING!!

Special thanks to Mister B’s Pizza & Wings for donating lunch on Wednesday, and Tacoholics for providing food on Cinco de Mayo!

Again, thank you to everyone who donated food, drinks and monetary donations for buying gift cards! We were able to buy multiple $25 gift cards for our daily Trivia Contest winners and our overall gift card drawings at the end of the week!

And we have snacks and drinks leftover for teachers and staff to enjoy next week during Finals Week! 👏

We appreciate Student Council writing handwritten notes to teachers! ❤️

THANK YOU!! We appreciate ALL the support!!! 🐅💙🤍

Day One of Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week! EXTRA gum because we are extra appreciative of our teachers and staff, and a pen with entry slips for their three chances to win one of our MANY $25 gift cards at the end of the week! They choose what they want to enter - gas cards, restaurant cards, coffee cards and more!

It was Kona Ice Day! Teacher/Staff Appreciation is next week - but today was all about Student Appreciation!

All students were invited to get a free Kona Ice during their lunch hour! Because of our Elf Training fundraiser in December and parent support with donations throughout the year, we are able to give students this special treat at the end of the year. Thank you! 💙🤍🐅

Memorial High School Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week 🎬🌟

Lights, camera, appreciation! This year we’re rolling out the red carpet for our incredible teachers and staff during Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week (May 4–8), and we need YOUR help to make them feel like the stars they truly are! ⭐

We have a full week of fun surprises planned, and there are several ways you can help support:

🍿 Donate snacks & drinks – Help us stock the teachers lounge with goodies for the week, with hopes of carrying some over into a Finals Week Survival Kit!
🎁 Contribute funds – We’ll be collecting money to purchase gift cards and additional treats for teachers and staff members.

Every donation—big or small—helps us celebrate the hard work, dedication, and impact our staff makes every single day. 🐅💙

If you’d like to contribute food or drink items, or purchase gift cards for teachers, you can sign up to bring items to the school office by Friday, May 1st EOD (let us know if you need more time): https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C044CA5AF22A2F94-63661013-teacher

The PTO would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who generously donated to our Christmas Luncheon for teachers and staff!
