Welcome to Margaret Buerkle Middle School for the 2008-2009 school year. Our Parent-Teacher Organization is made up of parent volunteers who work together for the betterment of MBMS and its students and staff. Be sure to check this page often for updates on the PTO's many activities and fundraisers.
The MBMS PTO's fundraisers include the eScrip program, Ugly Mug coffee sales and TJ's Pizza.
For more information on PTO activities, download the 2007-2008 school year PTO board meeting minutes (13-page PDF file).
Don't Forget about eScrip!
The eScrip program lets you contribute to your school just by buying groceries! Simply pick up a Schnuck's eScrip card at any Schnuck's courtesy counter, or ask your student to bring one home from school. (The PTO has a limited supply in the school office.) After you register your card online, you're ready to shop!
Ask the store clerk to scan your card each time you shop at Schnuck's, and a portion of your purchase will go toward the PTO's fundraising efforts. It's fast and easy, and your student will benefit from something you already do – buy groceries! Anyone can register an eScrip card, so remember to tell grandparents, friends and neighbors about eScrip.
Also new to the eScrip registration program: the Macy's Card and Macy's Visa Card. Check out the eScrip site for more information on how a portion of your Macy's purchases can go to help our PTO!
