12/17

We have had a great day today! Thank you so very, very much for your generosity today, from snacks at our party to goodies for the kids and for the teachers! We love each and every one of you!

First Baptist Church gave each student a black toboggan hat with a panther paw! We asked students to write their names in the tags in the top so that they will be able to keep up with them.

A few updates:
*Students who brought their biography projects and presented today earned five bonus points.
*Students who did not present today need to present on Monday 1/3/11 (no late penalty).
*We have rescheduled the movie for Wed. 1/5/11. A new permission slip will be sent home 1/3/11 to be signed and returned. The cost is $5 if not already paid.

We wish you all a very happy holiday season! Stay warm and stay safe.

Let's Say Thanks!

If you go to the web site, Let's Say Thanks, you can pick out a thank you card, and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier who is currently stationed overseas. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services. How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!!

It is FREE and it only takes a few seconds.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these?

This takes just 10 seconds, and it's a wonderful way to say thank you. Please take the time, and please take the time to pass it on for others to do. We can never say enough thank yous.

Thanks for taking the time to support our military! Don’t forget, freedom is never FREE.
