Dear Model Family,

With the new school year rapidly approaching, the Model Parent Organization (MPO) welcomes you back to Model. This year will be different for our school, which will change some of our programs and events. We will keep everyone updated on our events and programs, so please follow us on Facebook @Model Parent Organization, Inc. and sign up for our email list.

We are excited to announce that our large annual fundraiser will change from Great American to the Boosterthon program this year! It will be held in the spring. More information will be sent out as the event gets closer.

We Need Your Help!! As a parent you are automatically a member of the Model Parent Organization. We encourage and look forward to your participation.

MPO raises funds throughout the year for teacher/student resources, and also organizes events/programs for our school.

You Are the Future of Model Parent Organization! Parent participation is essential to ensure that these activities continue.

If you are interested in coordinating or participating in an event please email mpo.prez@gmail.com and I will gladly provide additional details about these opportunities.

MPO is looking forward to another great school year!

Gerald Tatum MPO President

Kroger Fundraising Information As many of you know, Model participates in the Kroger Fundraising program each year. I have listed below the details of what you will need to do to get signed up for the new program. All you have to do is register your Kroger Plus card number online. The main purpose of ALL funds raised from this will be to go toward class trips that will start in 5th grade and continue through 8th grade. We will continue for the high school classes for other trips, Project Graduation and expenses that will occur.

Here’s how it works: All you need to do is enroll your Kroger Plus card number at Kroger.com/community rewards. You will need to pick the number that is linked your child’s year of graduation or current grade year (see back of this sheet). You can only have your Kroger Plus Card number linked to one organization at a time. You no longer have to re-register every year like in the past. Once you are registered, you will stay with that group unless you change it. The money raised for each class will come off the overall cost of each student equally.

How we earn money: With this program they will disburse funds to each organization based on the amount that you spend each quarter. There isn’t a certain percent that we will earn for purchases. The amounts will be various since it will be based on the amount of spending by each organization. The more it’s used, the more we will make.

If you have questions about the program you can email mpo.prez@gmail.com.

Thank you for your support!!!
