Funding Goals for the 2026-2027 School Year
We have big plans for the 2026-2027 school year and hope to have even bigger funding goals for 2027-2028. Here's what your donations will support this year and beyond.
Fund the salary of an Artist-In-Residence position.
Supports our students with short-term, targeted supplemental instruction such as music or art
Run Club.
Continued organization and support of our Running Club with morning volunteers, mileage tracking program, charms, and rewards.
Fund BizTown for Midland’s 5th Graders.
Continued support of BizTown for Midland’s 5th Graders. BizTown is an interactive social studies curriculum with a day-long visit to a simulated town where kids experience real-world economics and financial literacy. MEF funds the school's program participation and busing to the event.
Fall Musical.
Back by popular demand, we are proud to present Finding Nemo Jr. as this year's fall musical. MEF supplements the cost of this production and offers discounted tuition and scholarships for Midland students.
Classroom Support.
Every year we help fund classroom supplies and equipment by donating a portion of our proceeds as teacher reimbursements.
Outdoor Classroom.
This is already being implemented! The classroom will be ready to go very soon!
Innovation Lab.
Special thanks to a few families who have donated equipment, we have been able to get started on our new Innovation Lab. More details to come soon!
PE Teacher.
This is a long-term goal of the MEF and can be achieved with successful donations this year and years after! Once we have raised enough money to fund a PE teacher salary, we want to keep that momentum going!
*Past funding goals include: New Clubs (Lego & Kick-Ball Club), Fall Musicals, Color Printer in mailroom, Classroom Curriculum, Grade-Level Books, Field Trips (varies by year), Science Labs, Digital Marquee, Impact Teacher salary, CPR Training for teachers and staff, Backpack Hooks, Artist-in-Residence (music/choir, mindfulness), Science Kits, Reading Assessment Kits, Staff Water Cooler, and Chromebook/Technology Fund.
We work with Midland’s administration and teachers to define high priority projects and programs for each school year.
Corporate Sponsors
Our Corporate Sponsor program welcomes employees from corporations to request corporate donations either directly from their employer or as part of an employee match program. We have worked with Intuit and Northrop Grumman in the past and welcome any current opportunities your employers may offer. For more detailed information about our corporate sponsorship strategy, please contact midlandeducationalfoundation@gmail.com.
Small Local Business Sponsors
Our Small Local Business Sponsor program is geared toward local Poway businesses that want to support the educational enrichment goals of Midland Elementary School. We love working with our local business partners on everything from restaurant nights to kids’ nights out! Our local businesses can help contribute to MEF’s educational goals, while also increasing their exposure to Midland families.
Family Donations
MEF also welcomes family donations to help support educational enrichment programs and activities for our children! Families are invited to give a one-time donation, or a monthly reoccurring donation spread over all 10 months of the school year.
