Local Family in Need-Let's Act Now!

An emergency meeting was held to brainstorm some fundraising ideas. The ideas were
  1. Game Day in the Library
  2. Coffee (Fair Trade) and Capuccino Morning
  3. Jeans Day (for teachers)
  4. IPod in Study Hall

Each of these would cost to participate. Our principal is open to all ideas and so is our Library Media Specialist. This Thursday's meeting will address this most immediate concern as well as our ongoing projects. Thank you all for participating.
