September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month!
Last week, the students received socks to collect their spare change for Kellsie’s Hope Foundation “Sock It to Cancer” Change Drive. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month and again this year the Foundation is continuing their mission to fund research for pediatric cancers. We will collect the socks at the end of the month.

The school receives different percentages back on each card purchased. If you know you’ll be shopping at a specific store (ie shopnsave, etc) or dining at a specific restaurant (ie olive garden, etc), or paying your store charge (ie kohl’s, etc), please think about purchasing them from school. Thanks for your support!
SCHNUCKS E-SCRIP CARD: If you don’t have one, contact the school office and we will get one to you. You only have to have them scan it at the time of your checkout – That’s it! Pretty easy, isn’t it?
