Post by: Peanut on March 20, 2015, 09:27:30 AM

Hi Parents,Teachers,Admin,and Community Members

I want to take the opportunity to inform you of all the stuff the PTSA is doing in the next few weeks:

March 16th-thru- 27th - Coin Drop - WEEK #2 We are looking to collect $1200.00 in coins

 Our school is participating in a classroom coin drive called the Coin for a Day Challenge. Each day represents a different type of coin. The Classroom generating the highest overall total will receive: Getting to Silly String the Principal (Yes you heard it here!! Mr Walsh will be getting silly stringed !!) and the Teacher will receive $25 worth of books for the classroom.

There will also be a prize for the classroom with the most unique storage container for their coins.

And some other Surprise prizes will be awarded as well

    Penny Monday

    Nickel Tuesdays

    Dime Wednesdays

    Quarter Thursdays

    Any Coin/Cash Fridays

    Or Any kind of coin/cash any day is completely OK.

The coins collected will go to the All-for-Books program (the amount we collect will be matched by Scholastic and a Donation to needy children in books will be given in our name)  and included into our total for the Book Fair.

On March 28th there will be a Full Bookfair to end our Book challenge at the school please come and support us! 10-12ish in High School Lobby. Great stuff for that Easter Basket!!!
