Fall Fest
We can't wait to celebrate this year's Fall Fest with the Mesa community on Friday, Oct. 18, 2024 from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. This is one of our biggest events of the year and is a blast for kids and their families! Look forward to outdoor fun and festivities with games, goodies and chances to win raffles. A special performance will be made by the Mesa M&Ms 4th and 5th grade music group from 6:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Bring chairs or a blanket and get ready for a fun evening at Mesa! This event raises funds for things at Mesa outside the paraprofessionals (Mesa Thrives campaign). Money raised from the 2023 Fall Fest funded decodable texts (books for young readers), Chromebooks, classroom supplies for teachers, and filtered water for the teacher’s lounge. This year, Fall Fest will again fund items requested by teachers, staff, and parents. All such allocations will be voted on and approved at PTO meetings. All funding requests are presented and voted on at PTO meetings. We need volunteers to make this happen! Planning meetings are open to all parents and caregivers. If you would like to help plan, sign up here via HelpAtSchools! Donations Needed! Donate gently used stuffed animals, books, and small toys (fits in palm) in good condition for the stuffy walk, book walk, and lollipop tree at the collection boxes at the front office. Cakes are needed for the cake walk! Bake or buy a cake to donate; prizes will be given to the top three student-decorated cakes! Bring your cake to the front office by 10:00 a.m. on Oct. 18th if they will be included in the decorating competition. Otherwise, bring by the start of Fall Fest.
