Dear Parent

On behalf of the Mayflower Preschool Council, I’d like to welcome you to Mayflower Preschool for
the 2022-2023 school year. This will be my third year serving on the preschool council and I am
honored to be your new parent council president.

Mayflower Preschool has been serving the Grand Rapids area since 1968. As a non-profit entity,
we rely heavily on the participation of parents and the volunteer council to ensure that we are
meeting the high standards of our families and continue to provide high quality early childhood
programs that have been accredited for many years.

The Mayflower Preschool Council consists of parents who have a dedicated interest in the
preschool. Our mission is to encourage and facilitate communication between and among
parents, teachers, and administration, to foster a sense of community and belonging for
Mayflower Preschool families, and to raise supplemental funds that will enhance the educational
programs, teacher professional development and facilities at the preschool in ways that will have
a positive impact on our students.

Fundraisers the council runs each year include:
  • Sponsorships from local businesses
  • Mabel’s Labels name tag sale
  • Fall Festival Event
  • Charleston Gift Wrap Sale
  • Restaurant Nights
  • Ice Cream Social Event and Auction

Because of your support in these fundraisers, we have been able to provide our preschool with:
  • Ongoing teacher professional development
  • Additional classroom resources/materials
  • Playground improvements (climbing structure coming soon!)
  • Security upgrades (new classroom/exterior/stairway door locks)
  • Staff appreciation meals & celebration events
  • Newly painted cubbies and Director office update

As a council we will be asking for additional parent volunteers throughout the year and would
love your involvement! Examples include: volunteering at fall festival or the ice cream social,
signing up to be a room parent or becoming an official “Friend of Mayflower” with a donation
toward the school. You can find out more by checking out the Mayflower Council page on our
school website at www.mayflowerpreschool.org/council.html. Please feel free to contact me
with any questions or concerns. I look forward to meeting you and thank you for sharing your
children with us!
