Seward Montessori School: Support our School 2024

Greetings Seward Friends and Families! 

This year we are seeking $15,000 to support our school. All funds raised will go towards the following efforts:

Supporting our school community

• Extra school supplies for students and teachers in need
• Winter gear for kids
• Grocery gift cards for food over breaks and holidays to keep our community fed
• Taxi credits for emergency transport

Educator grants for teachers and staff to expand their learning resources

• Teachers get $100 twice a year to spend as they wish on additional support for their classrooms
• Grants support: in class special activities, community service, supplies for classroom pets, headphones for students who need quiet workspaces, adaptive bike gear
• Staff appreciation events throughout the year

Field trip support

• In school experiences like the school field days, puppet shows, and a petting zoo
• Out of school experiences like nature walks, trips to the Ordway, and the 5th grade Camp Widji experience

Outdoor learning support

• Landscaping materials for our new outdoor classroom and support for our flock of chickens

2024 Fundraising Goal: $15,000 

Seward serves 650+ PreK-5 students in South Minneapolis. A gift of about $20 per student will get us to that goal. 

Your donation has an opportunity to go even further by making Seward eligible for additional cash prize donations as part of GiveMN's Give to the Max Day! All donations are fully tax-deductible. 

Please consider giving a gift that feels meaningful to you. All gifts help us get closer to our goal!

Thank You!

Our community makes us great, and your financial support helps us provide the best experience for our young students. 

Thank You for Supporting Seward Montessori School!
