Cookie Dough Fundraiser
We are excited to tally up all the orders starting this Monday. We already have seen some big numbers come our way. If you have not handed in your cookie dough forms and/or money, please do so on Monday as we have parent volunteers organizing our orders that day. Delivery of cookies should happen around the third week of November. Details will be sent when we confirm our order.
Lost N’ Found
Do you feel like you child is missing something?? Well, we have over 50 hoodies and so much more gathering dust in our lost n’ found. So, if you haven’t seen your child wearing that favorite coat or hoodie, perhaps encourage them to check out the lost n’ found in the main foyer.
Healthy Hunger
We had a planned Booster Juice fun lunch for Wednesday, November 20. We were informed this fun lunch was not listed on the site properly. It has now been corrected so families can order their child’s fun lunch until Friday, Nov 15 at midnight.
