Today we kicked off the
2018 Calendar Raffle Sales Period!
 Today, each student was sent home with a packet containing instructions and information about the fundraiser. The Calendar Raffle offers you, your friends and your family a chance at many great prizes and brings critical funds to our public Montessori school.
This is our largest school-based fundraiser and the goal is to reach $15,000 in sales.
All materials and raffle items have been donated, so every dollar raised will go to supporting our public Montessori School.
Here's How It Works:
- The 2018 Mill Falls Calendar Raffle features many different prizes from local businesses.
- Calendars can be purchased for $10 each.
- Calendars may be purchased via PayPal or by cash or check.
- Buy more then one to increase your chances of winning!
- The winner's name goes back into the drawing to try to win again...that is 30 chances to win these great prizes for only $10 per calendar!
- April is our prize month. A ticket will be drawn each day during the month of April to determine that day's prize-winner.
- We will call/email lucky the daily winners and announce winners on our FaceBook Page: www.facebook.com/MillFallsCharterSchool

Letgo Your Mind will start
Wednesday, March 21st.
Each week the Letgo Your Mind Teacher will discuss key engineering and physics concepts and demonstrate how special LEGO® elements work together. Students might make vehicles that can travel 50 feet under their own power or glide down a ramp. They will use gears to make things move or spin! Students will create LEGO® builds with challenges to make them more complex. Participants will use LEGO® pieces that move with gears and a motor. Each session you'll take home lots of new ideas and fun memories, but not your LEGO® creations.
