"There are two things we should give our children: one is roots and the other is wings."
-Hodding Carter, Pulitzer Prize winning Journalist
This year, we are starting Roots and Wings Network, where parents and caregivers can connect to create meaningful opportunities for our kids to grow and gain independance in their community, while lending a hand to neighbor. Roots and Wings Network is perfect for
young pet sitters looking to grow their business
Babysitting
Light Housework
Lawn Care
Picking up Mail / Trash Responsibility for Neighbors
And more!! You. tell us….
Roots and Wings Connection
Connect with other neighborhood families with middle schoolers and high schoolers looking for neighborhood jobs. Babysitting, Yard Work, light house cleaning.
These are kids looking for work in their communities to build their resumes, build financial responsibility and independance. Please work out any compensation with all parties before work starts. All connections are made between Parents and Caregivers.
Family Support
Our PTG strives to help all students and families grow. Some of the things we can help with:
School Lunch Debt
School Supplies
Feild Trip costs
Connections to MMSD District Resources
Assistance to families getting settled in new homes (bedding, groceries, books and craft materials for kids at home)
