We realize that there are a lot of paper forms that go home with students. Please note that throughout the year, any PAC related notice will be printed on yellow paper. This avoids confusion in determine if the event is a school event or a PAC event. We'll do our best to keep you informed. Direct Drive Fundraiser was a success
Our Direct Drive is now complete and we are very pleased to announce that we collected just over $5500. It is truly an amazing accomplishment and we are so thankful for all the generous families that contributed! The top division was one of our Kindergarten classes. All the prizes have now been distributed. Because of this successful campaign, we will be able to set aside more money for future capital projects, purchase new jerseys for our sports programs and maintain our skating & dance offerings. Tax receipts for donations over $25 will be sent home in February 2019.
