Honor our MTSD Staff with a grant for mtef!

The Mequon-Thiensville Education Foundation is delighted to host the third annual Staff Appreciation Grant for MTEF!  This grant provides an opportunity to honor ANY current MTSD staff member when you make a donation in their name to MTEF. This a wonderful way to say thank you to our district staff members during teacher appreciation month and for senior families to say thank you to those special staff members!
  • WHO can be recognized through the grant?
    Any of our current outstanding MTSD employees! You can recognize a classroom teacher, paraprofessional, special education teacher, facilities coordinator, administrative assistant, coach...so many options!
    Families are encouraged to ask their student(s) which staff members they would choose to recognize.
  • WHERE does my donation go?
    All funds raised will go towards the MTEF general grant fund and will be earmarked for staff professional development.  
  • WHEN can I make a Staff Appreciation Grant donation?
    The grant period is in conjunction with Teacher Appreciation Month and runs May 1 through May 31. 
  • HOW will the MTSD staff member be recognized?
    Every honoree will receive a communication at the end of the grant period that will note their recognition and the individual(s) who made a donation on their behalf. All honorees will be listed in MTEF's Annual Report. 
  • I'M READY TO DONATE!
    Great!  Make your tax-deductible donation by clicking the button below. Please be sure to include the full name of the staff member(s) you wish to honor. $5 or more donation per honoree.
