Seen Any of These Around?

If you were around after school Wednesday, chances are pretty high that you saw A LOT.

Most of the school was sporting a mustache from the kick off assembly for Great American Opportunities. GAO is the fundraiser for which packets came home as well. The first 2 weeks is a really well priced magazine sale, paired with an online store, which is YEAR ROUND. Mark the web address below in your bookmarks and remember to shop there when looking for gifts for Christmas, birthday's etc.  With our code, the school will receive 40% of all purchases made! 40%! Fundraisers such as this are a great opportunity for the school. If large ones like this are a success, it will enable us to do away with some of the smaller ones, so our parents don't feel like they are faced with so many. But, it takes all of us to do it TOGETHER, so we hope you find some items you like.

And yes, this is where the kids got penguin fever! We think most of them are revved up and ready to earn more penguins!!

ACE Meeting this week & Oringinal Artwork Due

There will be a 1 hour ACE meeting Tuesday, Oct. 9 at 6:30 P.M. We hope to see you there!

If you haven't had the chance to turn in an Original Artwork order, you still can. Just try to have them to the office by Wednesday. The order has to be mailed out this week to ensure a holiday delivery. See above for some of the really cute ideas. One neat thing mentioned before but not pictured is the new iphone case. I got other family member's kids to secretly do one for their parents, and am ordering them as gifts! you still have time!

 

This is what it looks like when a school and it's community come together...

No! Not a truck full of junk! A truck full of SUCCESS! - And happy students too!

You did it! While we won't get the "official" word till around Friday, I don't know about you, but that is one FULL truck! Dont' let the shadow at the top fool you. It was filled to the ceiling!


Thank you so much to all those in the school or parish, other parishes, and those who drive by, who donated anything large or small. Special thanks to those who helped work a shift this past weekend : Hilary Munoz, Lori Miller, Chad Reich, Jeffrey Reich, Meghan Purcell, Stas Jimenez, and The Ferioli Family. Also to Marcia for helping us with phone calls and distributing flyers,  and with a big, big, BIG thanks to Dennis Sheehan and Martin Vigil. You guys were great. Your muscle and patience were appreciated to no end!

OK, now no resting on our laurels...This Friday, Oct. 5 is Root Beer Float Friday! Floats will be sold for $1.50 at lunch throughout the month of October. Also due are The Original Artworks orders and Scrip orders. And if you haven't gotten you Knight Run pledge forms in, Elizabeth is still taking them.

Thanks again for stepping up and making this a success.
Take care,
Michelle
