Parents Show Their Love for MICDS During Pledge Week

Many thanks to our MICDS families who answered the call to support the MICDS Fund during our first-ever Pledge Week. Parent participation reached 51%!

It was a week filled with wonderful testimonials from parents and friends on why they love MICDS and why they choose to support the School. Even our students got involved on Wednesday morning during drop-off, handing out stickers and hanging out with the MICDS Ram. On Friday, Head of School Jay Rainey bundled up to pass out bookmarks with a list of 10 great books as a token of appreciation for Pledge Week support.

Your gifts to MICDS impact every child, every day here on campus. We are grateful to you for supporting our teachers and programs and for contributing to our welcoming, inclusive and spirited community.

If you participated in Pledge Week, thank you! If you missed it, it’s never too late to make a gift. The final results will be shared on Monday, November 25.

Your participation matters. Thank you again for making it count and for making a difference!
