A
WORTHY CAUSE
On
any given day at Matthew
Turner Elementary School, you'll discover
budding artists creating masterpieces and future scientists engaged in their latest experiment. You will notice the
smiling faces of our students as they are encouraged to become original
thinkers, to discover their unique voices, and to soar. There are few
causes as worthy as education. Matthew
Turner Elementary School is poised to set
the stage for developing the leaders of tomorrow.
Your support of our annual auction will help sorely under-funded enrichment programs such as art programs, academic assemblies, computer equipment and some basic audio/visual equipment. Our students are natural multi-taskers, fluent in technologies undreamed of a generation ago. Classroom technology such as computers and audio/visual equipment enable our students to learn with a global perspective. All proceeds go directly to our school to fund programs that enhance our children's education.
If you would like to donate and/or sponsor the auction or have another idea or question, please send an email.
Congratulations VIP TABLE winner:
