Exam Proctors Needed!

Corporate Fundraising Campaign

Are you a business owner or do you work for a company that is active in the community? The PTSO’s Corporate Partnership Committee is looking for business sponsors for the upcoming school year. The support we receive from corporate sponsors and local businesses is instrumental in enhancing educational programs and extracurricular activities at East Meck, including advancement in STEM education, arts and music, sports teams, and much more. Sponsorship also helps create a more engaging and supportive learning environment for our students. In return, East Mecklenburg High School will proudly acknowledge the company’s name in our newsletter, at our event venues, or through our social media platforms, highlighting its pivotal role in supporting education in our community.
