A Message from the Principal
Our annual Jog-a-Thon is next Friday, November 18. This is one of our major fundraisers and we need your help in making this a success. The sponsorship deadline has been extended to tomorrow. If you have anyone out there that is still thinking about it...this is a good time to make that last phone call or visit! Remember that each $250 sponsorship you obtain will fulfill your $150 commitment for one student! Thank you for your support of our school.
Next Friday, all students will receive an official 2011 Jog-a-Thon t-shirt designed by 8th grade students Leonardo D and Michael G. Congratulations to them for submitting the winning design!
Sincerely,
Ms. Olivia Carrillo
