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.
*Please note the Staff Appreciation Grant is a separate program from MTEF's Excellence in Education Awards, which have closed for the year.*
