Dear Madrona Family,
It saddens me to see our very empty events calendar. In light of keeping our
community as healthy as possible, MIT has cancelled all MIT events through April
12 per the Edmonds School District Guidelines announced on Friday, March 6. Our
committee chairs are working hard to reschedule as many of the events as
possible. Volunteering in classrooms is still encouraged. If you have questions
about this, please contact your child's center.
Please keep up-to-date with Edmonds School District current
COVID-19 information here .
Thank you for your patience during the next several weeks as changes happen. We
will do our best to keep you updated about moving and/or new dates for
activities. If you have any questions, please reach out.
Wash your hands and keep healthy.
Molly Tobias
MIT Chairperson

We are gladly accepting gently used books for Preschool through Middle School Readers. If your family is doing spring cleaning of their bookshelves, please keep us in mind. The event is a lot of fun and we try to send each interested student home with at least one gently used book for the summer. Donations may be delivered to library before school at 9:00- 9:15 or after school at 3:50 - 4:05 or you may have your child bring them when they come to library class.
