Family Directories - If you wish for your contact information to be omitted from the School directory, please contact the school office by Friday. Otherwise, the directories will be printed for families to pick up at the school office next week.


Emails from Gradelink - Some parents have not been receiving teacher emails sent from Gradelink. As we are investigating the cause of this, please double check spam folders as many have reported that these emails have started going to spam rather than the inbox.


Lost and Found items will be set out for parents to check at Parent/Teacher Conferences next month. After that, the remaining items will be donated. Please check Lost and Found.

BEYOND HUNGER DONATIONS

Walk with Grace

 

DONATE: The walkathon is just 10 DAYS AWAY!! We are still VERY FAR OFF of our goal of $25,000, but there is still time! For those of you that still haven't signed up for Pledgestar, now is the time!! No class has hit the 100% participation goal yet, you can help your class win that prize! We also have a prize for the class that raises the most money, so keep it coming!!


GIVE BACK: Your children heard about Beyond Hunger last week in chapel and how we are helping by collecting food and supplies throughout the neighborhood during our walk. But Grace also gives back in our own way. You should have received a flier yesterday about our collection. Our own CLASS COLLECTION COMPETITION! Starting tomorrow we will be collecting non-perishable food and supplies to support Beyond Hunger. Each item will count as one point and the class with the most points at the end of the week (Thursday, September 26-Thursday, October 3) will win a prize! The students will be updated daily through next Wednesday. The final prizes will be awarded on Friday morning. 


VOLUNTEER: We have had a great response for volunteers, but we are in desperate need of wagons for the food collection! If you have any or can borrow any please sign up. It is the only way we can collect the supplies while we walk the neighborhood.
