Funds raised go directly to helping fund programs that support MES students, including field trip stipends, classroom stipends, grade-level programs, R.A.P., Moanalua Moves!, and Family Nights.
Thank you to those who already signed up. If you did, you can assume that you will be placed in the shifts that you indicated on the Google Form.
