12-13-12 Daily Update

Parents,

We finished our treat shop sales today by selling out of every treat.  In total, we earned over $110 dollars just for our class!  That should mean that we raised over $500 as a grade level.  Amazing!  Next Monday we will present the money to representative from the Zion Church which uses the money to purchase food for needy Whitehouse families.  Thank you for your support of this project with your donations!

I could use help with an activity we have planned for the holiday party.  I need a few wrapped gifts to give away as part of a party game.  Gifts should be inexpensive items.  School supply items work well such as packs of pencils, crayons, markers, erasers, paperback books, notebooks, etc...  They need to be wrapped for the game as well.  If you would like to donate a small gift item for the game, it is appreciated.  The more gifts we have, the more fun it is and the more students who will receive a gift.

Reminders:
  • Turn in Peach Student Directory form (optional)
  • Winter Party is Wed., December 19th (See previous e-mails or class blog for the items to bring in)
