Fall Festival numbers are in!

After all reimbursements for materials, prizes, and safety patrol volunteers, you helped us raise $6,451.00!  Since PTA met their fundraising goal, we are able to provide Montessori materials for the classrooms, awards for our annual Mile Maker run, cultural arts programs, and the ever popular Renfro’s Readers celebration!  Classrooms will announce to families how much the class received from the silent auction baskets.

Small Hands catalog

If you are interested in making purchases from the Small Hands catalog that went home last week, we receive points towards their products if you place your order by November 21st.  Just be sure to mention code 107673.  With points earned, we redeem them for materials in the classrooms.  If you think you might be interested in placing an order and misplaced your catalog, the website is www.ForSmallHands.com.

Has your child left behind a jacket or lunchbox at school?

We have many brand new jackets and lunchboxes that have been turned in to Lost and Found but there are no names on them to hand them back to their rightful owners.  Please stop by the main office or remind your child to make a visit to Lost and Found.  Please remember to label all outerwear and lunchboxes.  A last name is fine as well.

Feel like treating a para or teacher?

One of our paras picks up orders from Panera and Starbucks for staff on Fridays.  She uses the tips to go into an account to purchase a yearbook or costs for the 5th grade field trip for those who do not have the means to take part.  If you would like to surprise a staff person with coffee or lunch, please see our receptionist, Ms. Wendy.

I hope everyone has a terrific Thanksgiving!

In partnership,
Paula Renfro
