Where Your Money Goes

Thanks to your generous donations, MKS has fully funded the salaries of our four MKS Resident Artists for the 2017-2018 school year! This means the return of Ms. Gilbert (drama), Ms. Neel (dance), Ms. Zierhut (visual arts) and Ms. Acitelli (music)!

But wait there's more...

At MKS' annual meeting in May 2017, parents in attendance also voted to fund 2017-2018 Korean-drum instruction for all 3rd-graders, and earmark $2,000 for new visual-art supplies and $7,500 for the return of the after-school Master Class, which will produce a spring musical starring our incoming 4th- and 5th-graders.

All told, MKS voted to donate $53,612.50 to cover these efforts. (Note: The unused portion of MKS' 2016-2017 donation -- some $12,000 -- will also go toward covering the 2017-2018 artists and classes.)

MKS' parent-volunteers also voted to donate $30,000 for intervention instruction for the benefit all classes and all children.

Overall, thanks to you, MKS was able to make 2017-2018 donations totaling more than $80,000.

MKS raised roughly $70,000 this year. As of now, we are due to begin the 2017-2018 school year with a General Fund balance of $55,353.80.

Thank you for your support. #Bravo!
