The Results of the 2026 SAW Fundraiser 
Thanks to all the families who contributed to the MCH Parent Association Staff Appreciation Week (SAW) Fundraiser! Together we raised $9,100. 

​​The incredible teachers and staff at Montessori Children’s House (MCH) are the heart of our community, creating a nurturing and inspiring space for our kids every day. That’s why the PA LOVES SAW! Now that the funds have been raised, the SAW committee will get to work planning the following: 

• A coffee bar with pastries
• Ice cream truck  
• Community donated raffle items 
• Snack carts refilled throughout the week
• Two community driven potlucks
• Gratitude garlands and staff room decorations

The PA can continue to take donations until May 1st.
