Cookie Dough Fundraiser
PTO has started their cookie dough fundraiser! Please consider selling dough to benefit our school.
Market Day Fundraiser
If we sell 1,000 pies, we would get 45% of that profit to purchase books for classroom use. Any student who sells 5 pies will earn an ice cream sundae party. The top 10 sellers in the building will get to throw a pie at Mr.Miller or Mr. Dillon. Please return orders by this Thursday, March 6th.
