FOM Events
Friends of McPherson hosts all sorts of events throughout the school year to both raise money for our school and to strengthen our community.
Through these great events (which we also have tons of fun at!), we are thrilled to be able to support our school in various ways including teacher enrichment, supplying technology to classrooms, hosting teacher and staff appreciation events, supporting classroom needs, bus and field trip support, school beautification, after school programming, and curriculum enrichment and enhancement.
