- HONOR AN EDUCATOR - SEND A ROSE FUNDRAISER Say Thank you to an Educator - The Montville Township High School Hall of Fame Educator Recognition Program is the perfect way to recognize all of the wonderful educators and support staff in your child’s life. Consider making a tribute to your child’s teachers, school nurse, counselors, administrators, administrative assistants, coaches, or anyone else in the school district who has had a positive impact on your child’s life. When you make a donation in their name, each honoree will receive a rose with a personalized message from you and your student. For each honoree, the donation is $10 and you can recognize as many individuals as you would like. You can do this online, https://bit.ly/mthshof . All proceeds benefit the MTHS Hall of Fame Scholarship Fund. Deadline: Friday, May 21st
