BoxTop/Labels for Education Spring Challenge

Thank you for collecting and turning in your box tops and labels during our Spring challenge. We had a great challenge and the school will receive almost $400 from our box tops and we have turned in over 600 label points! It was a close race amongst the classes but the top classes were Miss Musich's 2nd graders (2-3) and Mrs. Helmann's 4th graders (4-1). These classes will get to choose a prize to recognize their success. Thanks again, and keep clipping and saving all spring and summer long, in anticipation of our challenge next year in October! Any questions... please contact Gina Groberski. Also, a great big THANK YOU to the volunteers that helped clip, count, and sort all the box tops that we received! Your help is greatly appreciated!

Thank You Corner!

Our last Activity Night of the year concluded last night, wrapping up a fun year for all grades. Each grade had the chance to spend an evening experiencing fun interactive shows in our Olive commons. Thank you so much Christina Perez and Jen Hasche for co-chairing this committee. You have done a wonderful job!

Volunteers Needed: Just Move It! Challenge
 
We NEED Volunteers! Over 75 volunteers are needed to make the Just Move It! Challenge race day a success! Street Marshall volunteers are needed for both the 5K and 1 Mile races. This is a great way to cheer on family and friends while they run or walk! You can help and still be a part of the fun!
