We wish to thank all the parents who gave to our October clothing drive. A record 15 bags of clothes were donated to the recycling center at City Hall for distribution to needy families. As well, we thank the many parents who came out in support of our annual Harvest Festival on October 31 (see picture). You helped to make it a great event for all of our students.
In November we will be holding our 7th annual Read-a-Thon, our fall fundraiser which also doubles as an encouragement to our students to read more. Each student will be asked to read at least 5 books during the month and we ask parents, related family, and friends to sponsor them in this task. Each child will be given a separate web page to which sponsors can indicate their pledges of support. Our overall goal for the fundraiser is $5,000 as a school. We will appreciate any support you can offer which will be counted towards the $200 we ask each family to donate to the school during the course of the school year. Look for an e-mail on it this week.
