Dear Parents,
As the holidays approach, we would like to do a community service project with our 3/4 classrooms. You may know that a member of our custodial staff has been out with a medical problem this fall. We would like to collect money for a gift card to a grocery store to help him out during the holidays.
We are NOT asking you for straight donations. What we would like is for students to earn money by doing extra chores for you. If each child earned $1.00 by doing chores, we could collect $100.00! Some children may earn more than $1.00.
We will be brainstorming with our students about what sorts of chores they could do. They also need to talk to you about what you think is reasonable and would be worth $1.00 (or more) to you.
At their recent meeting, the Grades 5-6 Student Council voted to support the Grades 7-8 Food Shelf service project by collecting cash donations in support of both the food shelf and Max Broderick, our Pre-K student who was recently injured in an accident.
The collections will be held from Friday, December 11th through Wednesday, December 23rd.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
Maria McCormack
