The Entertainment Book sale is ending tomorrow.

If you want to buy the book, please send the $20.00 to school with your child as soon as possible as the sale formally ends on September 22nd. We need to have all unsold books returned to the school so we can return them to the company we received them from. Thank you, everyone, for making this such a great sale. Kathy Spurrell.

Our next scrip order date is October 13th. In keeping with our school’s “green” program, we are going to try to save paper by not distributing a new form to each student every order date. Rather, we will remind you of the due date and ask that you download the form from our web site. There will also be blank forms available at both the Washington and Hoyt buildings; or just give Liz Walle a call and she’ll be glad to get a form to you. The order dates for the entire year are: October 13th, November 3rd and 17th, December 1st and 15th, January 12th, February 2nd and 23rd, March 16th, April 13th, May 4th and 18th, and June 8th.
