Our PTO Candy bar fundraiser is underway! Letters including permission slips were sent home today. Please help us sell $1 Chocolate Bars to raise money for field trips and other things for our students!! Parents and Students: • We would like to encourage EVERYONE to sell at least 2 boxes!!! • You may begin selling as soon as your signed and dated permission slip is turned in. • Car Riders, Walkers, and Bus Riders will bring candy bar boxes home with them after turning in their permission slips. • Boy's & Girls Club Students will have their candy bars kept in the office until an adult picks them up. • Students/Parents may pick up additional boxes of chocolate bars, one at a time, as they return the collected money for the previously sold box. • If you sign the money envelope when you return it, that is your signature to request another box to sell (as written on the envelope below the signature line). Please do not sign the envelope when you return the money for the box you sold if you do not want another box to sell. • Once a box is sent home and opened, we are not able to take the box back. • For every box sent home atter a signed permission slip or money return envelope, $60 will need to be returned to the school for that box at the end of the fundraiser. Our sale will end Tuesday, February lIth, 2025. Please have ALL MONEY TURNED IN by this date.





Our students love PE with Coach Jenkins! They are learning gymnastics skills and are working hard to develop flexibility, balance, and muscular strength. Students have had fun working on individual skills as well as working on different challenges with partners!
