MIT MS and HS: Candy and Treat Donation, Please.
Dear MITA Community,
As we continue to connect and strengthen our two campuses as ONE, some traditions will scale up with your support. We greatly appreciate the families that have donated individually wrapped treats for seasonal fall festivities, including the following:
“TEACH OR TREAT.” Help us to create a sweet memory for the students by donating treats so that each classroom is able to participate. We will accept donations up to the day of the event on Friday, 10/30/31. The students have a blast going from classroom to classroom to pick up treats, including high school students. We have about 40 classrooms to cover. Thank you for including us on your shopping trip. Please drop off the treats in H2 and fill out a donation form.
MS HAUNTED HOUSE. The MIT MS Leadership class would greatly appreciate any “abandoned hospital/morgue” decoration donations. Please contact the ASB Leadership advisor with questions, Destin Tunca, dtunca@mitacademy.org.
HS MAZE. The MIT HS student leaders are putting a maze of activities. The ASB Leadership advisor is Ms. Lara-Castro, dlara-castro@mitacademy.org.
SPIRIT WEEK. Our student leaders put in much time and effort to create a vibrant campus life. Please show your appreciation by participating.

MIT High

Costumes that depict violence, alcohol, or drugs are not permitted. Fake (or real) weapons are not allowed.
