Enrollment in our school is a privilege enjoyed by Madeira Beach Fundamental students and their families.

We always appreciate exemplary conduct from our parent community as well, as the neighborhood and businesses which surround our school are an extension of us.

Fall Fundraiser Update
Fall fundraiser items and cookie dough will be delivered and ready for pickup next Monday, November 11th - 1:30 - 3pm. Please arrange to collect your order. All orders that include cookie dough must be picked up by 3 pm on Monday to avoid spoiling. The school does not have the freezer space nor the ability to house any cookie dough that is not claimed on Monday, and PTSA will not be held responsible for any damaged, lost, or spoiled cookie dough.
Please line up at the side door to the middle school cafeteria and be prepared with the student name, grade and teacher that the order was placed under.
Efforts will be made to get the orders that do not include cookie dough to your student’s class. This will depend on volunteer participation and is unknown at this time. We ask that you prepare to park and walk up to collect your order.
If you are unable to pick up on Monday after school AND your order does NOT include cookie dough, you can pick up at drop off on Tuesday morning, November 12th from 7:30 – 8:15 am - side door to the Middle School Cafe.
We need your help with the unloading and passing out of items! Nov 11th, Monday starting at 12:30! Many hands make for lighter work and we can’t do it without you! PTSA thanks you in advance for your help!
