special giving section – fiscal year 2019
Dear families, This past school year, MP&MS engaged in a very thoughtful brand refresh in order to clarify and distill its central messaging so that families can better understand our unique value. One of the outcomes of this process was a more intentional focus on three key themes: be connected, be curious and be courageous. I can unequivocally say that these words really do tell the school’s story in a compelling way. We are a strong community that is deeply connected as parents, students, teachers, and administrators. We are a strong community that is always curious about our children and how to provide the very best for them. And we are a strong community that teaches our children to be courageous each and every day. This very mix of comfort and curiosity is what makes MP&MS so truly special and important for our children during their formative years. As we launch this year’s Annual Fund, I find that it is a time of personal reflection on our family’s MP&MS journey. We are in our 15th and final year at MP&MS, and the coming transition gives me the opportunity to consider my appreciation, commitment, and loyalty to an educational institution that has been the cornerstone of our family for many years. For our family, one of the many ways we show our deep commitment and appreciation for MP&MS is through our support of the Annual Fund. Last year, the small but mighty Annual Fund Committee was able to raise close to $800,000, which is the single largest Annual Fund campaign to date at MP&MS. Our children all benefit deeply from the community’s generosity. With the momentum and success we have built so far, I am excited to invite you to join my family in supporting this year’s campaign, which launches October 15, 2019. Thank you for your ongoing support and for showing that you are committed to the future of MP&MS. It is an honor to work together as a community for such a wonderful cause.
With gratitude,
Nancy Connery Hailey ’18 & Morgan, 8th
