President's Message
If you haven’t joined the MCES PTA, there is still time! You can find the membership form on our website at http://middlecreekpta.weebly.com, under PTA info, Join the PTA tab. Being a volunteer is not required, but we could sure use some more help. Don’t forget, if you are going to volunteer at the school, you must complete the volunteer registration in Mrs. Fountain’s room. If you are a first time volunteer, you will need your driver’s license to complete the form. If you have filled out the form before, it’s a very quick process to update your signature.
Look for more exciting PTA events below! Happy Fall Ya’ll!!

MCES Food Drive
Middle Creek is sponsoring our 10th annual Food Drive to benefit the The Holly Springs Food Cupboard from Thursday, October 15th through Wednesday, October 28th. You can drop off food and hygiene items from 8:00a.m to 8:30 a.m to Mrs. Parrish’s office each day of the Food Drive.
(Please no GLASS PRODUCTS or EXPIRED FOODS). Our goal is to fill up Mrs. Parrish's entire office and make our largest donation yet to help our neighbors, friends, and family in the Holly Springs community.
Would you like to help? We need volunteers to receive and stack donations for a short time in Mrs. Parrish's office each morning of the food drive (8:00 to 8:45/9:00AM) and on Friday, Oct. 30th for Donation Pick Up.
