**100% of your Take Stock in Morse​ donation supports staff**
Morse PTO does not ask students to fundraise. Instead, we ask parents and caregivers to fulfill teacher and staff grant requests by donating to Take Stock in Morse. When you pay a PTO fee or contribute to a PTO fundraiser, the funds are distributed by PTO to support specific school initiatives. However, 100% of your Take  Stock in Morse donation goes directly back into the classroom in the form of resources, educational materials, innovative programming and cutting-edge technology.

 You can donate to the 2022 Take Stock campaign online through ParentVue under Fees.
It's not too late! Funds donated through December 31, 2022 will be applied to  2022 school year requests.
Donations made to Take Stock after this deadline will be applied to the following school year's requests.

Summary of Take Stock in Morse Campaign

All grants submitted by staff members were first approved by an administrator before coming to the grants committee.  The grants committee was composed of several Morse parents, and all applications were reviewed thoughtfully and discussed at length.  Thank you to the parents who  supported our staff through Take Stock. Your money was put to good use to make a difference in the lives of our kids. 
2021 funded requests totaled almost $4,000!
